  4. The ²Ø¾«¸ó Commitment

The ²Ø¾«¸ó Commitment marks a milestone in the University’s progress to make a ²Ø¾«¸ó education affordable to as many talented, high-achieving students as possible, regardless of their socioeconomic background.

For eligible domestic students, this comprehensive financial aid initiative will:

  • eliminate tuition,
  • significantly reduce student debt, and
  • adjust tuition based on the family's income levels.
     

The Composition of the ²Ø¾«¸ó Commitment
 

Full Tuition Support

Students with an annual family income of $80,000 or less will attend ²Ø¾«¸ó tuition-free.

Aligning Income and Tuition Costs

Students with annual family income levels between $80,000 and $175,000 will pay a percentage of annual income toward tuition.

Expanding the No-Loan Initiative

Students with annual family income levels up to $175,000 will have their demonstrated need met with a financial aid package that does not include loans.

 

 

Financial aid packages will cover the average cost of textbooks and classroom expenses

For all students on financial aid, aid packages will expand to meet the average cost for textbook and other classroom expenses as part of ²Ø¾«¸ó’s efforts to meet the full cost of attendance beyond tuition. This is an important step in ensuring that student academic choices and experiences are not constrained by demonstrated financial need.
