Popular majors include business, teaching, education and criminal justice.
5. Curtis Institute of Music
The Curtis Institute of Music offers full-tuition scholarships to everyone who gains admission. The school is very particular when it comes to applicants, accepting only 160 new students each year.

8.State of Washington Universities
Both the University of Washington and Washington State University offer need-based programs that pay full-tuition and fees.

Special scholarships are also available to out-of-state students who need help covering the cost of tuition.
9. Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering
At one point, the Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering offered a full-tuition scholarship to anyone who attends. The school has since reduced the scholarship policy by 50 percent. Even so, Franklin W. Olin College still offers one of the largest merit scholarship programs in the country to all admitted students.
10. University of the People
The University of the People is the world's first tuition-free, non-profit online university. Students who enroll are not required to pay any tuition. Study materials are also free. However, there are modest fees ($10 to $100) for taking tests at the end of each course. Fees work on a sliding scale depending on the country where you live. The University of the People does not confer degrees yet for either of their programs (business administration or computer science.) But the school is in the process of applying for accreditation, which means that they may be offering degrees very soon.
