New Haven, CT, Announces Program to Provide College Tuition to City’s Public School Graduates

Yesterday, the city of New Haven, CT, announced it was making good on a pledge to provide college tuition to students who live in the city and graduate from New Haven public schools. This announcement was made at the launch of New Haven Promise, a non-need-based program that, if successful, officials believe will reshape the futures of city students for years to come.

There are two major funding sponsors for the program: Yale University and the Community Foundation of Greater New Haven.
