Free College Tuition for Select CFB High Schools
Free college tuition for select CFB high schools? No – that’s not a typo! Students at Early College High School, R. L. Turner High School, and Newman Smith High School have the opportunity for:
- Free tuition at any college in the Dallas County Community College District for all students, regardless of income or GPA.
- Success Coach support will begin at the end of student’s senior year and continue through college completion. Additional textbook stipend for students meeting income and 2.5 GPA (75 or better on a 100-point scale) requirements.
- Transfer scholarships available to UNT Dallas and SMU, with more universities coming on board soon.
Dallas County Promise is a transformational effort between school districts, colleges, universities, workforce, and communities to increase college completion. At the core, the promise is a scholarship from the Dallas County Community College District Foundation in partnership with matching university scholarships aligned to high-demand jobs.
