NC State, UNC-Chapel Hill Approve Tuition Increases

NC State Universitys Board of Trustees approved a tuition increase for both in-state and out-of-state students, the first for in-state undergraduates in nine years. Incoming undergraduates will see a hike of $196 for in-state and $945 for out-of-state, while graduate students will pay more. The increase aims to attract and retain top faculty and support students, despite maintaining affordability. UNC-Chapel Hill also approved a three percent tuition increase and fee hikes. The UNC Board of Governors now allows individual schools to consider such increases, but the final word may not be spoken as state lawmakers propose their own tuition hikes and spending cuts.
