What is Free Tuition Plus?

#1Tuition-Free ASC

An amazing 77% of newly enrolled Alfred State students from New York are eligible for all SUNY tuition costs to be paid by federal or state funds thanks to Pell, TAP, and Excelsior. US News ranks ASC the #1 SUNY among all Regional Colleges and #2 SUNY on Social Mobility for assisting low-income families and first-generation students whose parents did not gain a degree.
