Maine Public Colleges and Universities
Four-Year Public Colleges and Public Universities
Although the "Pine Tree State" has its share of cold winters, the cold temperatures do little to diminish the raw natural beauty that typifies Maine. For such a small state, it manages to pack in an impressive number of hiking trails, camping spots, and fishing holes. Not surprisingly,
many students from Maine schools and universities double as outdoor adventurers as well. A few years at one of the state's many prestigious programs will transform you into a highly skilled backpacker in addition to whatever other disciplines you are pursuing.
The State of Maine administers its own system of higher education, known as public colleges or universities, just like local governments and cities operate their own public K-12 school systems for local residents.
Financial support for Maine public colleges and universities comes directly from the state government, from tax dollars and other revenue the state collects in lieu of private endowments. Maine public colleges and universities may also receive funds from the federal government and private
sources, but in many cases the state is the primary source of support of public colleges.
In this small state, online schools and distance learning programs are still in abundance for those seeking to earn their online college degrees. In 2000, 7.4 percent of Maine's population was enrolled in college. If you are seeking continuing education, then what better way to work and go to school
at the same time!
