ECC board votes to hike tuition, fees for next school year - Jay Tokasz, Buffalo News

Erie Community College students will pay an additional $138 per year in tuition, plus more in student fees, under a 2016-17 budget plan unanimously approved Thursday by the college’s trustees. Tuition, which is currently $4,595 per year, would increase by 3 percent to $4,733, pending approval of the college’s spending plan by both the Erie County Legislature and the State University of New York board of trustees. ECC trustees also raised the technology fee for students by 27 percent from $330 to $420 per year for a full-time student. The college already has the third-highest tuition among community colleges in the state. http://www.buffalonews.com/city-region/higher-education/ecc-board-votes-to-hike-tuition-fees-for-next-school-year-20160505
