MADISON, Wis. – The president of the University of Wisconsin System told legislators he sees a 4.2% hike in undergrad tuition and fees in the fall. Even so, said Jay Rothman, the System will remain “an incredible value compared to our peers.” Rothman’s proposal goes to the UW governing board March 30.
Verbatim
Rothman: “It is unsustainable to continue a decade-long tuition freeze, even as costs have increased and inflation has accelerated, This modest tuition increase will help our universities continue to provide students with a world-class education, produce the talent that makes Wisconsin’s workforce succeed, and spark innovation and vitality in our communities.”
