Our Most Frequently Asked Question


Why is this program FREE?
We’re a nonprofit with a mission to get our Central Texas neighbors into great careers. Each year, Capital IDEA raises enough money to pay for tuition and textbooks for over 800 adults, like you! If you’re eligible for our program, you can earn your college degree with no debt and no loans because your tuition and textbooks are already paid for by the generous support of funders like: City of Austin, Travis County, Hays County, and St. David’s Foundation.
