Johns Hopkins University Eliminates Tuition for Most Students

The changes build on donations over the years, including the multibillion-dollar gifts from former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

Johns Hopkins University will eliminate tuition for undergraduate students from families earning less than $200,000 a year, starting next year, university officials said.

In a statement on Nov. 13, the Baltimore-based university announced that students from families earning up to $100,000 per year will receive additional financial support to cover all other fees and living expenses, allowing them to attend without any parental contribution.
