For all the freshmen at UGA (and any state institution) who thought that their tuition was going to be fixed for their time here, think again. The Athens-Banner Herald is reporting that the Board of Regents has put this plan on hold.
They are reporting that it won’t cost the University System too much more, but no word in the article of how much more it will cost students (who thought they would pay the same during their four year stay at state institutions).
I would be rather upset if I came to UGA (or Tech, or anywhere public in Georgia) under the assumption that my tuition was going to hold steady for four years, only to find out 6 months later that it might increase.
For some background info on the four-year, fixed tuition plan, see here and here.
