OHSU, facing state funding cut, raises tuition - Elliot Njus, The Oregonian

Oregon Health & Science University's board voted Wednesday to raise some tuition and make cuts to certain outreach programs to trim about $3.7 million from its 2010-11 budget because of declining state funding. The university will raise tuition by 4 percent at its School of Medicine and an average of 12.1 percent at its School of Dentistry. Both schools had similar increases the previous year. The heftier tuition is expected to bring in about $2.5 million more in 2011 than was budgeted in the previous year.
