Starting next fall, tuition will be free for MIT undergraduates whose families make less than $200,000 a year, broadening MIT’s existing program. For students from households making below $100,000 a year, MIT will cover all expenses including tuition, housing, dining plus an allowance for books and personal expenses. Pre-financial aid, the total cost of attendance is about $86,000, though most students who receive aid pay a median annual cost of $12,938. Other Massachusetts colleges have made similar moves. Brandeis University will cover full tuition for students whose families earn up to $75,000, starting next fall. University of Massachusetts will provide free tuition for students whose families earn up to $75,000.
