Like I said, I'll ask around...I'll come up with it, cause I have a buddy that did take advantage of it. He'll know what the name of it is.

Just might be a reason people don't use this program. Tough to take advantage of it when you've never heard of it.

There's a huge difference between free tuition and going to college for free.

I just did a quick google on free college and found this article: More programs offer free tuition - US News and World Report

Exactly! There is much more cost to going to college than just tuition.

Like what?
You can take night classes you know, that way it doesn't interfere with your job. There are always excuses. If you had free tuition you wouldn't figure out how to make it work?

Tuition is just part of the cost of college. Anyone who has been to college should know this. The cost of books is a separate cost, activity fees, there's a cost just to apply to college, the cost of room and board, food, and supplies. Heck, there are several colleges requiring students to have laptops, so that's another sizable cost. There is also a cost just to graduate college too.

Hold up...are you telling me there are no colleges near you at all? No community colleges you can commute to? There should be no need for room and board.
Yes, books are a part...buy used and save big.
Activity fees? What activities will you be doing? You should be focusing on school work and actual work, activities are a luxury.
The cost to apply is small. $39 I think.

Again, you go to night school and don't quit your job. You are assuming you need to quit your job and do what a 19 year old kid does when he moves to college...that's just not required.

If tuition is covered, there is very little other expenses required to make it.

ps- you can get a refurbished computer from the school if you just ask.
