Browne Says UWI Five Islands Tuition to Become Free for Eligible Citizens After Campus Upgrades
Prime Minister Gaston Browne said Wednesday that tuition at the University of the West Indies Five Islands Campus will be free for eligible Antiguan citizens once ongoing upgrades to the campus are completed.
Browne made the announcement during the presentation of the 2026 national budget in Parliament, outlining a series of education measures his administration plans to roll out next year.
He also said tuition fees at the Antigua and Barbuda College of Advance Studies will be removed in 2026, and that the government will cover the cost for all students sitting CSEC examinations.
Browne framed the initiatives as investments meant to expand access to higher education and ease financial pressure on families across the country.
More to come on this initiative.
