BU Promise Makes College Affordable | Boston News

from Boston News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Boston University is revolutionizing college access with BU Promise, launching in fall 2026 to cap yearly costs at $20,000 for first-year students from families earning under $200,000—loan-free. Families making $75,000 or less get full tuition, room, and board covered. This bold move joins a growing trend as elite schools like MIT, Harvard, Tufts, and Colby expand aid to middle-income families, ensuring talented students aren’t turned away by price tags.
