Regents Plan Tuition Hikes Amid Shortfall in State Aid
The Iowa Board of Regents proposes raising in state undergraduate tuition by 300 for the 2016 17 year after lawmakers approved 6.3 million more in general university funding instead of the 20.34 million the board sought. Rates would rise to 7178 at Iowa and 7148 at Iowa State and UNI. The move mirrors last year when shortages prompted tuition increases after a freeze. ISSU Note indicates 8A page references.
