I want to know what the later half of the century will be like and was curious about the future. I cant look into the past and see what the future will be like to me that is kind of impossibe. I don't want end of the world answers or we will destroy our selfs or 2012 will be the end. I was wondering what do you think will happen from 2010 to 2099?

Answer
*We would have pen-like cell-phones clipped to shirt pockets,micro tvs on our wrists. Gone are the days of phones constantly dropping, misplaced or stolen.

*Our home tvs, lights, radios,etc could be switched on or off by the sound of one of two claps.

*Laptop batteries could last more than 12hrs, electric bikes or cars could go for a week without charging.And computers and cars from Asian countries will cost 3 - 5 times cheaper than now.

*More schools and higher institutions will be staffed with counsellors and security staff to ensure the safety and well-being of students, in view of bullying and mass shootings incidents in the past.

*Society and mass media will take stringent control measures on pop concerts, nudity, porn, etc in an attempt to arrest fast-declining standards of ethics and morals.

Is in the USA a University without tuition fees ?

Michael

Does someone know a university in the United States without tuition fees?

Answer
For most, if not all of the schools in the lists in the links I give below, a student will still need money for housing/meals (room and board), books/class supplies, transportation, all your on-going personal expenses.

Any student who is not a US citizen or permanent resident (green card holder), meaning an International Student, would also need to obtain a US Student Visa and provide written documentation that he/she has enough money to pay for his/her housing, meals, books/class suplies, and personal expenses during the full time he/she would be living in the USA and enrolled in the school.
