I'm interested in learning Python (not from a professional development perspective, I just think it might be fun to learn). For those that have learned Python or know a good amount about it, does anyone have any tips on learning Python as effectively as possible for free? I'm looking to learn the whole thing without paying for any courses or lessons (college budget). Any ideas?

For sure, codecademy.com to start. There's plenty of other resources to learn more and go more in depth but they've continuously been the best intro class for non coders that I've seen
Thanks for the suggestion, I just made an account and started learning! I really appreciate your help!

Leetcode
.
Is Python your first language? If so, I’d suggest FreeCodeCamp and just playing around that way. Leetcode will be very intimidating because there’s a level of prerequisite knowledge needed to jump into it (namely understanding core data structures- linked lists, BSTs, deques, etc).
There’s different ways to use Python too. So the most useful for you is probably taking some data set from a document (like csv) and then getting a report out of it. Find very basic projects online (Medium articles/ YouTube videos) and practice that once you more or less get the hang of writing for loops and what not
I always point people to the Harvard CS50 course online. The first few parts are in C teaching data structures/algos and other general intro to programming things, but the rest of the course as well as projects are in python.
