Hi! So I'm starting to stress a bit about college costs and I was wondering, do any HBCUs offer low out-of-state tuition that you've heard of? Any assistance in narrowing down my list would be golden!
Hey there! I absolutely understand the concern about college costs - it's something my family navigated recently as well. To help you out, some HBCUs are known for their more reasonable out-of-state tuition rates. For instance, Alcorn State University in Mississippi and Central State University in Ohio have out-of-state costs that many find manageable. Additionally, consider looking into the Southern Regional Education Board's Academic Common Market, which might offer in-state tuition rates for certain programs if they're not available in your home state, as long as the schools you're considering are participating.
Another thing worth checking is scholarships, as some HBCUs offer lots to attract out-of-state students. Make sure to look at each school's financial aid web page for up-to-date information and opportunities. It takes a bit of digging, but there can be some real gems in terms of financial options that significantly cut down those out-of-state fees. Wishing you all the best in finding the perfect fit for your budget!
