6.8 PERCENT IN-STATE TUITION INCREASE SOUGHT
The UW Board of Regents are under fire again for a proposal that would raise tuition for in-state students 6.8 percent next fall. According to the plan, up for Regents review this week, the increases would translate to $382 more per year for students at UW-Madison, $374 more at UW-Milwaukee and $291 more at all other UW campuses. The plan would also lower out-of-state tuition at all campuses except UW-Madison as part of a plan to attract more students from other states.
