Kansas: Senior Citizen Tuition Waiver and Discount

          Photo by Briana Tozour

This is a comprehensive guide for all senior citizen tuition waivers, discounts, and auditable classes in the state of Kansas.  I am working hard to get the information up-to-date covering all fifty states, which is quite a feat.  To stay informed on all free classes for seniors near me, check back often for the most recent updates.

Some colleges, universities, and community colleges offer tuition waivers and discounts to senior citizens.  I have listed all colleges and universities below with links to programs for seniors that I have actually found.  The ones listed without a link to a specific program may not have any discounts.  The contact information is listed for you to check with the registrar in those cases.  The Kansas Board of Regents dictates tuition waivers, however, I was unable to find a specific statute on their website.
