The University is thrilled to announce the launch of UChicago Promise. Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Chicago Public Schools CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett, and UChicago President Robert J. Zimmer unveiled this collaboration between UChicago and the city.
This is our pledge to make college affordable and accessible for every student in Chicago. They can graduate debt-free. Students in high school in Chicago can attend the university without receiving any loans in their financial aid packages. These loans will be replaced by grants that do not have to be repaid. Furthermore, Chicago residents will have their application fees to UChicago waived.
In addition to this, UChicago is setting up an Admissions Academy to provide resources that will guide applicants and families through the admissions process.
This is big stuff. UChicago Promise is well and truly incredible.
