Overview
- The University of Pittsburgh announced a pledge that will make tuition free at selected regional sites starting this fall.
- Pennsylvania residents qualify if their household income is below $75,000 a year.
- The offer covers Pitt–Greensburg, Pitt–Johnstown, Pitt–Bradford, and the nursing program in Titusville.
- After federal, state, or other aid is applied, the university will pay any remaining tuition for eligible students.
- Leaders say the pledge targets first‑generation and Pell Grant students, and coverage places it in a wider tuition‑promise trend as Penn State closes seven regional campuses.
