Prime Minister Gaston Browne has announced that qualifying Antiguan citizens will receive free tuition at the University of the West Indies (UWI) Five Islands Campus once its expansion programme is completed.
Delivering the 2026 National Budget, Mr Browne said education remains central to the country’s long-term development and confirmed that the campus is undergoing major upgrades to increase capacity, modernise facilities and broaden its academic programmes.
He said the policy is designed to widen access to tertiary education, strengthen the country’s skills base and ease the financial burden on citizens seeking higher qualifications.
