UMaine Student Interviewed for MPBN Article on Paying for College
Maggie Keeley, a University of Maine freshman studying nutrition, was interviewed for the Maine Public Broadcasting Network’s report titled “Paying for college — study now, pay later idea sparks interest in Maine.” Keeley, from Manchester, Maine, said her parents always told her that if she went to UMaine they would pay her tuition and if she went anywhere else, she would be responsible for paying the difference. Keeley said her parents have kept their end of the bargain, but she worries that with rising tuition costs, they won’t be able to offer the same deal to her younger sisters.
