Johns Hopkins University will be eliminating tuition for undergraduate students from families that make up to $200,000 a year, starting next year, the university announced Thursday.

Thanks to a $1.8 billion donation in 2018 by Michael Bloomberg, an alumnus of the Baltimore university, and continued donations up to $240 million since then, the university will now be tuition-free for qualifying undergraduate students. In a release, the university said students from families that earn up to $100,000 a year will ” receive additional aid to cover tuition, fees, and living expenses,” meaning they can attend the school with zero parental contribution.
