OpenCourseWare
a free and open educational resource for faculty, students, and self-learners around the world. OCW supports MIT's mission to advance knowledge and education, and serve the world in the 21st century. It is true to MIT's values of excellence, innovation, and leadership.
What does this mean? Well it means you can access the material for over 900 MIT courses--FOR FREE. So while you're not going to get a degree from MIT, you can access almost all the knowledge available to the students who are paying 30 grand a year for the priviledge. How cool is that?
