6. East Tennessee State University
The East Tennessee State University or ETSU is a research-centric institution based in Johnson City, Tennessee. Founded in 1911 as the East Tennessee State Normal School, it has evolved into one of the state’s largest universities.
ETSU offers undergraduate and graduate programs in the fields of Arts & Science, Business & Technology, Clinical & Rehabilitative Science, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Public Health.
The university also offers unique degrees, such as that in Bluegrass, Old Time and country Music, as well as Appalachian Studies. It also offers a Master’s in Storytelling, which is the only program of its kind in the US.
ETSU offers free tuition for first-time, full-time freshmen students who are recipients of either the Tennessee Student Assistance or Tennessee Hope Lottery Scholarship Award. This will cover tuition and program service fees but will exclude the costs of on-campus housing. The scholarship is also limited to in-state students.
