Proposal could raise tuition on long-time students in Texas
State Comptroller John Sharp backs a plan to charge higher tuition to students with 170 or more credit hours, potentially up to four times the current rate starting 1999 if approved. The proposal, aimed at those who switch majors or accumulate many credits, would raise annual costs from 2150 to 7910 dollars, with exceptions for advanced placement and board discretion on amounts.
