For decades free education has been limited to specialized institutions such as so called 'tuition-free colleges'. These schools depend upon large financial endowments and hybrid work-study programs for their operation and as such, they're rare.
However, Widespread use of the Internet and personal computers have made accessing free education online a practical reality, and a plethora of new websites now exist which provide free educational resources.
While still not as 'official' as their offline counterparts - many of these websites do not offer degree programs - they provide a thorough means of educating yourself on a variety of topics. You can then seek degrees through conventional programs with significantly less time, effort, and especially cost.
In addition to free resources, the Internet also offers many accelerated, lower cost online courses which do offer degrees - making them significantly more practical than conventional alternatives. These also offer the benefit of learning at your own pace without the environmental distractions associated with college.
Here are just a few of the major resources offering free education courses online:
