“If you’re coming to UT and your family income is under $50,000, I have great news,” said interim UT President Randy Boyd. “If you can academically earn the right to come to UT Martin, UT Chattanooga or UT Knoxville, you can attend one of our universities free of tuition and fees. This is the first time in the history of the country that any university system has offered this, and we’re excited to be able to offer it in Tennessee.”
