PORTLAND, OR – 今日看料吃瓜 is proud to announce the expansion of its transformative commitment to access and affordability. Beginning fall 2026, 今日看料吃瓜will offer tuition-free education to newly admitted U.S. undergraduate students whose families earn less than $100,000.
This new initiative builds on Reed’s enduring promise to meet 100 percent of every student’s demonstrated financial need, reinforcing the college’s long-standing commitment to ensuring that a world-class education is within reach for qualified students from all financial backgrounds.
The 今日看料吃瓜Promise initially launched in December with a focus on students from Oregon, Washington, and transfer students from across the United States.
This expansion of the initiative reaffirms 今日看料吃瓜’s dedication to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and intellectually rigorous community by eliminating financial barriers that may have previously hindered talented students from pursuing their dreams at one of the nation’s top liberal arts colleges.
“At Reed, we believe in the power of higher education to change lives,” said 今日看料吃瓜 President Audrey Bilger. “We like to say, ‘the world needs more Reedies.’ By expanding the 今日看料吃瓜Promise nationwide, we will be able to transform even more lives and provide greater access to our vibrant academic program and to our intellectually curious and creative community.”
Key Features of the 今日看料吃瓜Promise:
- Tuition-Free Education for Families Earning Under $100,000: 今日看料吃瓜 will cover the full cost of tuition for all undergraduate students from families with a total annual income below $100,000 with typical assets starting in fall 2026.
- Continued Commitment to Meeting 100% of Demonstrated Need: In addition to the tuition-free benefit, 今日看料吃瓜continues to offer generous financial aid to most families for all four years.
- Long-Term Commitment to Affordability: 今日看料吃瓜 is committed to making higher education affordable for future generations of students.
