New Mexico had a no-tuition-increase guarantee for enrolled students at its state schools, but sunsetted it in 2020 for new students.
They also have a really interesting arrangement where out-of-state residents pay in-state tuition rates for 6 credits/semester or less, and everybody gets really cheap tuition (at least at WNMU) during the summer. Something like $250/credit hour at the graduate level.
So, for example, in the 2 year social work masters, if you are willing to go for 3 years instead of 2, you can get a really cheap masters degree (something like 18 grand all in) vs about 32 grand if you are out-of-state and go for two years.
It's awesome if they are now making all higher education free for residents. I wonder if that applies to graduate programs?
