After a 36 percent tuition increase in the last legislative session, Rep. Rob Kreibich is proposing a bill to cap tuition in the University System over the next two years.
Kreibich says the bill will limit tuition and fee increases in the next budget to three percent. He says the cap is needed in order; to make higher education in Wisconsin affordable and accessible to all, and a $1.6 million budget shortfall likely means the $15 million in general purpose revenue requested for financial aid will not be provided.
