Summer tuition to increase this year
Posted on January 17, 2008
The Board of Visitors approved summer tuition increases for 2008 last week.
This summer in-state undergraduate students will be paying $28 more per credit hour while out of state students will pay $83 more per credit hour. Graduate students will be paying $38 more per credit hour (in-state) and $110 more per credit hour (out-of-state).
An additional $2 per credit hour fee was added for all students as a student services fee. The cost of room and board has not changed.
Jim Hartman, chairman of the finance and physical development committee, said this increase will place JMU right in the middle, with the seventh highest tuition out of 15 other Virginia schools for both in and out of state students.
The Board did not discuss changing tuition for the academic year.
The Board of Visitors also approved two budget amendments.
