New York City Medical School Makes Tuition Free After $1 Billion Gift
HuffPost
Students were filmed jumping out of their seats and screaming when informed of the donation at a surprise meeting.
Students at a New York City medical will soon have one less thing to worry about: tuition.
A $1 billion donation to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx is guaranteeing free tuition for all students in perpetuity, it was announced Monday, with a video capturing students’ shocked reaction to the news.
The school is touting the donation as the largest to any medical school in the country.
“This donation radically revolutionizes our ability to continue attracting students who are committed to our mission, not just those who can afford it,” said Yaron Tomer, Ph.D., the school’s Marilyn and Stanley Katz Dean, in a statement. “Additionally, it will free up and lift our students, enabling them to pursue projects and ideas that might otherwise be prohibitive.”
All current four-year students will have their tuition reimbursed for the spring 2024 semester. Then, starting in August, the school said all students would receive free tuition.
