New plan under discussion: guaranteed admission at TN campuses (for instate students)

Technically, Tennessee Promise is like a scholarship program with some conditions attached: TN Promise | Tennessee Board of Regents . Main one is to start community college immediately after high school and maintain continuous enrollment of at least 12 credits per semester with satisfactory academic progress. Not difficult for full time traditional students, but could exclude those who can only attend part time due to work or family obligations.

Average Cost of Community College [2023]: Tuition + Fees shows the in-state (tuition and fees) cost of community college by state, not including the effect of scholarship programs like Tennessee Promise or any other financial aid.
