First year tuition free?

Colleges are starting to charge what their degrees are worth.

I bet we see a lot more of this. And recent Grads screaming unfairness and demanding student debt forgiveness.

This university is getting ahead of the college transition curve to cutting staff and going online to the degree possible. Coming to a university near you. Those who fail to make these types of moves are destined for the scrap pile. If you are an average college professor this pandemic has turned you into a blacksmith after the model-T was invented.

I see ads for SNHU......ALL THE TIME. I really thought it was either a fake college or just an online business. Honestly, I never thought SNHU was real.

Wanna bet this diploma mill offers little to none in terms of STEM programs...

Been to soccer games there. Beautiful campus.

Went into a building to find a restroom. Photos of faculty up on a hallway wall prominently stating what they teach and their sexual preference.

City University of New York has always had free tuition. Back in the 1980’s more CEO’s of Fortune 500 companies were graduates of City College (just one campus or CUNY) than any other school. City College was legendary for the quality of its graduates.

Then they had open admissions.

Proving, once again, tuition across the board should not be as high as it is.

we are experiencing proof that large campuses are unnecessary. Much of school including college can be done at home or a distance.

Unfortunately liberal faculties and unions control education no matter white’s best for the kids.

Athletes can play for town teams and then go into the majors. Schools don’t need those large facilities and 30 sports teams.

Libraries can be online.

A friend of mine got her Undergrad and MBA through their online programs. She was always smart as a young woman and very motivated. She’s leveraged that into a great career.

I worked for their Athletic Department as a contractor for ten years. They always struck me as a sharp organization.
