New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced a new initiative to offer free tuition, books, and fees for adults aged 25-55 pursuing associate degrees in high-demand fields such as nursing, technology, and education. The program, available at SUNY and CUNY colleges, aims to address workforce shortages by equipping New Yorkers with the skills needed for in-demand careers. This initiative expands on existing financial support programs, helping thousands gain access to higher education.
