College costs are about to get even higher. The Higher Education Price Index is forecasting inflation for U.S. colleges and universities to increase by 2.6% for this fiscal year. The forecast takes into consideration the average relative price of goods and services purchased by colleges through educational and general expenditures, excluding research. Last year, the Higher Education Price Index estimated the inflation for 2018 at 2.8%.
