Trustees of the American College of History and Legal Studies (ACHLS) decided to follow in the footsteps of more famous schools and charge no tuition for those students enrolling for their junior year.
In a press release, the college said there are a few highly regarded educational institutions that provide students with fine educations tuition free, or tuition free for one year or more. Those schools include Cooper Union in New York City, Berea College in Kentucky, Olin College of Engineering in Massachusetts, and the University of California at Irvine School of Law. (Not to mention the military academies.)
Therefore, the trustees of the American College of History and Legal Studiesa completion college offering the junior and senior yearshave decided to follow in the footsteps of these schools by eliminating all tuition during the junior year for students who enroll in the fall of 2011. These students will receive a rigorous education at no cost to them.
Students who do not go to law school at MSL during their senior year, but instead remain at ACHLS for their senior year, will be eligible, as before, for half tuition scholarships of $5,000 if they have performed well academically in their junior year at ACHLS. Thus, the total tuition for an education during their junior and senior years can be $5,000 -- free in their junior year and only $5,000 for their senior year if they remain at ACHLS rather than go to law school.
ACHLS is located in Salem. For information about ACHLS, to schedule a visit, to request a catalog, or to apply, visit www.achls.org , email info at achls.org or call 603.458.5145.
