Most University of Wisconsin-Madison undergraduates would eventually pay $1,000 more per year under a long-term plan outlined Wednesday to improve quality and increase financial aid.
Undergraduates from Wisconsin would pay a $250 supplemental tuition charge starting next fall while nonresidents would be hit with a $750 charge. The charges would increase by the same amounts the following three years – for a total in the 2012-2013 school year of $1,000 for residents and $3,000 for nonresidents.
Students from families that earn $80,000 or less – about 6,500 of the schoolâ??s 29,000 undergraduates – would receive enough financial aid to offset the increases.
