University System of New Hampshire considers 4-year tuition freeze - HOLLY RAMER, Associated Press
In-state students who graduate from one of New Hampshire’s public colleges and universities in 2016 could be the first in state history to pay the same tuition for four consecutive years. After years of significant increases, resident tuition was frozen at the 2012-13 rates for the last academic year and the one that starts in September. Now the University System of New Hampshire’s board of trustees has proposed continuing the tuition freeze for two more years if the Legislature agrees to the budget request they’ll finalize in September. That would keep in-state tuition at the system’s flagship campus, the University of New Hampshire in Durham, at $13,670, an amount that had increased 45 percent since the 2008-09 academic year and is among the country’s highest for a four-year public school.
