MIT and Brandeis Announce Tuition-Free Programs for Low-Income Families

Starting in 2025, MIT will offer tuition-free education to undergraduates from families earning less than $200,000 annually, with those earning under $100,000 paying nothing for the full cost of attendance. This expansion of financial aid aims to make MIT more accessible, with 80% of American households qualifying under the new income threshold. The initiative is supported by MIT's endowment and reflects the institution's commitment to affordability and accessibility, ensuring talented students can attend regardless of financial circumstances.
