University of Nebraska Students Pay More in Tuition in 2016 (Online University) - Students attending the University of Nebraska will pay 1.75 percent more in tuition next year and an additional 2.5 percent in 2016-17 under a budget passed unanimously Friday by the N.U. Board of Regents.
The increases bring a thaw in the two-year freeze on in-state tuition the university engineered with former Gov. Dave Heineman and the Nebraska Legislature.
The changes will apply across NU campuses and to both in-state and out-of-state tuition. NU officials signaled the likelihood of a tuition increase in April.
New NU President Hank Bounds has said the budget, even with the increases, ensures that the university remains a great value compared with its peer institutions. And by including a 3 percent increase in the university’s salary pool, he said the campuses would be better equipped to retain and attract top talent in a competitive marketplace. Bounds said the university lags its peers in terms of compensation. (Online university news source: Kearney Hub)
