Tuition

The governor’s directive extends a tuition freeze for Texas’ public universities that was approved in the last legislative session.

High school graduating seniors are eligible for a free education at Austin Community College starting this fall if they live in the ACC service area. Those who do will not have to pay tuition or fees.

The ACC board of trustees voted Monday to approve the pilot program, which will launch this fall. The college’s main goal is to attract students who may not have pursued higher education.

The Biden administration extended the freeze on student loan payments yet again, this time until September, and announced a reset for borrowers in default.
