    Does anyone know of any online programs that offer free tuition to American Indians?

    Especially interested if the big 3 offered financial assistance...

    Greg,

    1. Check with your tribe

    2. Go to www.collegefund.org.

    3. Check with the school's financial aid dept.

    The first step is to check with the tribe, as it very much depends on which tribe you are in, what tuition assistance you will receive. Some, if it is documented at all in their official rolls, you can go to college for free, others you must live on the tribe land, even others a certain percentage. This is a tuition assistence from the government, and will be universal for all US institutions.

    You may also want to go to the scholarship databases out there and see what is being offered.

    I am not aware of any particular school that offers discount for a particular group, but hope the other information helps a bit. Good luck.
