UVU could raise tuition up to 4 percent - Braley Dodson, Daily Herald

Utah Valley University’s tuition could go up as much as 4 percent for the next academic year, depending on what happens in the final days of the state legislative session. “I have no idea what they are going to do,” said Linda Makin, the vice president for planning, budget and human resources at UVU, during the university’s Truth in Tuition hearing Thursday afternoon. “It looks like they have the money. I assume they are going to invest in higher education.” The legislative session ends on Thursday. The president’s council at UVU will review a potential increase on March 15, and the university’s Board of Trustees would have to approve an increase on March 28. Two days later, the Utah System of Higher Education Board of Regents would approve tuition increases. “We have to start making decisions really soon,” Makin said. https://www.heraldextra.com/news/local/education/college/uvu/uvu-could-raise-tuition-up-to-percent/article_22674785-9a53-54eb-a36c-f6a3d024881c.html
