Juilliard Seeks to Offer Free Tuition for All College Programs

Chris Cooper

Juilliard President Damian Woetzel talks with A Tempo host Rachel Katz Saturday (8/23) about the performing arts school's commitment to make its undergraduate and graduate programs more financially accessible.

This past Spring, The Juilliard School announced a goal of eliminating tuition for all its college-division students in an effort to increase affordability and accessibility to students pursuing careers in the performing arts. A Tempo host Rachel Katz chats with President Damian Woetzel about this plan, the school's fundraising campaign to support it, and the importance of bringing a performing arts education within reach of more aspiring artists.

Rachel Katz is the host of A Tempo which airs Saturdays at 7 pm.
