Hi everyone, it's Global Scholarships,
0:01
and I'm your host, As, and today we'll
0:04
see seven cheapest universities in the
0:06
United States. So, let's get to it. And
0:08
I know a lot of these prices are still
0:10
very unaffordable for a lot of people.
0:12
We do not claim these universities are
0:14
cheap, but these are some of the more
0:16
affordable options that we could find.
0:18
Although America is more expensive
0:19
compared to some other countries, there
0:21
are still more affordable options to
0:23
study in the United States. Students can
0:25
apply to several affordable four-year
0:27
degree programs and master's degrees.

0:34

international students to choose the

of the Penn State's 2025 campus plan,
1:10
seven Commonwealth campuses are expected
1:12
to close after the 2026-2027
1:15
academic year, so students should
1:17
confirm campus availability before

1:21
continuing campus options are
1:22
Brandywine, Altoona, and Berks. Two,
