Drake University is giving some students the option to receive complete tuition reimbursement
Des Moines, Iowa – Drake University may offer free tuition to some Iowan students.
Drake University has two choices for full tuition coverage: the Bright College Pathway and the Bulldog Promise.
Students in Iowa who qualify for the federal Pell Grant through the 2025–2026 FAFSA are eligible for both programs.
Undergraduates enrolled full-time are eligible for the Bulldog Promise. In addition to being first-time college students, qualifying candidates must have a high school GPA of 3.8 or above at the time of acceptance.
New students with associate’s degrees who have had these for two years are eligible to enroll in Bright College Pathway. A minimum GPA in high school is not necessary.
Neither package includes room and board or meal arrangements.
Go to Drake University’s website to learn more or to apply.
