MAINE’S PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES — The University of Maine System is launching an in-state tuition college dream completion program providing resident tuition status to any successful U.S. college student or law student displaced by a COVID-19-related permanent closure of a U.S. institution of higher education. The Maine Welcome is a first-of-its-kind national offer of resident tuition eligibility to help college students affordably continue on a path to a quality college or law degree.
