1. Provides degrees in career fields with strongest demand in NM.

2. Comes with a 'you have to get a job in state and stay there for at least 4 years' requirement.

3. Does not require you to lower your admissions standards in any way.

Love to know how they set budget for the schools with "free" tuition ** -- Bburg Native 09/18/2019 12:12PM
