To qualify for a tuition free education at Earlham College beginning next fall, a student must live in Indiana, be eligible for a federal Pell Grant, and their family must make $ 60,000 or less per year. Base tuition to attend Earlham for next fall is more than $ 49,000. In a video announcing the program, Earlham president Anne Houtman says the income eligibility is above Indiana's median household income.

Even with the new Inspire Earlham program, education isn't free. Students will still need to pay fees, including room and board, if they live on campus. Those fees total more than $ 13,000. The Richmond school says transfer students from Ivy Tech Community College and other schools are eligible for the tuition free program if they meet the qualifications. Stephanie Wiechmann, IPR news.
