In an effort to attract top talent to New England, the University of New England has announced it will begin covering tuition costs for high-achieving students whose families earn less than $100,000.
Starting in fall 2025, the University will provide free tuition to eligible high-performing graduating high school students from all states across the country. The announcement underscores UNE’s strong financial commitment to its students; currently, 98% of UNE students receive financial aid from the University.
