The cost of higher education at Georgia’s public universities will jump by up to 9 percent next academic year.
The University System of Georgia Board of Regents (USG) Tuesday approved a series of tuition hikes for the 2015-16 academic year. The increases will range from 2.5 percent at 20 of the system’s 30 institutions to 9 percent at The University of Georgia and Georgia Tech, two of the four research universities.
USG noted Georgia Tech and UGA “require more investment to provide the academic programs, offerings and student services that are essential as leading and nationally ranked research universities.”
Tuition will rise by 5.5 percent at the system’s other two research institutions, continue reading at the Atlanta Business Chronicle.
