ISU undergraduate students who are residents of Iowa could see an increase of $240 for the 2012-2013 school year.

Nonresident undergraduates are facing a 2.63 percent increase in tuition, or $480.

“Since [the fiscal year] 2009, the Regent universities have absorbed over $144 million in permanent budget reductions to general university funds. Despite the material cuts imposed, the Board of Regents held tuition and fees increases for undergraduate resident students to an average of 4.6 percent over this time period,” according to the proposal.

The Regents will also be discussing revising Chapter 6.08 of the Board of Regents Policy Manual.

The requested revision would edit the section of the Policy Manual on naming a center or institute after a sitting public official.
