How much should tuition increase next year? No more than 3.5 percent, according to the Commission for Higher Education.
The Commission set target tuition increase rates for public universities Friday.
For IU-Bloomington, the target is a 3.5 percent increase; for IUPUI and IU’s other campuses, the target rate is 2.5 percent. However, this does not necessarily mean tuition will increase at that rate for each campus for the 2011-2012 school year.
“What happened on Friday was that the Commission for Higher Education adopted recommendations and said that each school should not raise tuition more than these suggested percentages,” said Larry MacIntyre, associate vice president of University Communications.
The IU Board of Trustees is responsible for setting tuition for IU-Bloomington, IUPUI and IU’s regional campuses.
“The Board of Trustees will get a recommendation from President McRobbie, probably in about a week,” MacIntyre said.
