In a bold move, a local university offers 100% tuition coverage.
William Peace University is doubling down on its pledge to make higher education more accessible. Enter The Peace Pledge, the college’s ambitious new program that covers full tuition for qualifying students. Yes, you read that right—free tuition!
“At William Peace University, we believe financial limitations should never stand in the way of a student’s potential,” says Damon Wade, VP for enrollment management & marketing. “The Peace Pledge is more than just a scholarship—it’s our unwavering commitment to empowering bright, hardworking students with the opportunity to earn a degree without the burden of tuition costs.”
Directly addressing the rising cost of higher ed, the initiative gives students from lower-income households a leg up, offering what might be a once-in-a-lifetime chance to score a four-year degree sans financial barriers.
Eligible students must be a first-time undergrad, live in NC, come from a household with an income of $75K or less as determined by FAFSA, have a weighted high school GPA of 3.25 or higher, and be eligible for a Federal Pell Grant.
Peace hopes the Pledge will further contribute to its impressive stat of 98% graduates employed or enrolled in grad school within a year postgrad.
“Through The Peace Pledge, we are not just making college more affordable—we are opening doors, creating opportunities and inspiring students to reach their full potential,” emphasizes Wade. “This is about changing lives, one student at a time.” peace.edu
