Arizona regents set to hear comments on tuition proposals

The Arizona Board of Regents will listen to comments today, April 9, regarding tuition proposals for the state’s three universities.

The meeting will take place virtually 4-5 p.m. and can be viewed at ABOR Live .

Last year, the board approved a multi-year tuition structure to increase cost predictability for resident students at Arizona State University, the University of Arizona and Northern Arizona University.

The new structure includes setting maximum tuition growth rates “and also provides a lever for the board to hold tuition increases if the state of Arizona increases General Fund appropriations to the universities,” according to a release.

University presidents present to the board for approval maximum growth rates for resident tuition, academic fees and meal and housing plans in six-year cycles.
