State colleges raise tuition and cut fees in Vermont
Vermont state colleges vote to increase annual tuition by 195 dollars for residents and 275 for nonresidents starting next fall. Resident tuition becomes 670 and nonresident 1500, while student activities fees drop by 20. The move follows a 1 million dollar budget cut by the legislature and funds anticipated to exceed 650 thousand annually. A residency redefinition is planned to align with a new adulthood law for 18 year olds, and a three member tenure study panel is appointed alongside selecting a Lyndon State successor.
