Now there is one more.
Antioch College is reopening after being shut down for several years due to money problems.
And they are offering free tuition.

Antioch has a rich history. It was one of the first coeducational, non-sectarian colleges in the country. I suppose it was a precursor for places like New College (in its original, private incarnation), Hampshire, and College of the Atlantic.

I don’t know if they have aid to cover other expenses, but it will operate on an alternating work-study plan (as I believe it did in its prior existence). Whether all earnings go toward tuition, or could be applied to room/board/etc., you’d have to investigate.

As of whenever the catalog was published, it was not yet accredited (but they seemed to expect accreditation to happen as a matter of course). Moreover they apparently had not hired a faculty yet. These are things to be concerned about … but still, this school might be a good option.
