At their meeting May 5, the Trustees of Indiana University approved tuition rates for the 2000-2001 academic year that will increase undergraduate tuition for Indiana students by 4 percent on the Bloomington and Indianapolis campuses and by 3.5 percent on the regional campuses.
The typical full-time, in-state undergraduate student at IU Bloomington will pay an additional $75. A similar student at IUPUI will pay an additional $69.
Tuition increases approved for in-state students at the regional campuses represent an average increase of $51. Tuition and fees for IPFW are set by Purdue University.
"This is the third year in a row that the trustees have passed a budget with reasonable tuition increases," IU President Myles Brand said. "This budget reflects our efforts to balance our commitment to educational access for all qualified students while also sustaining our excellence."
IUB ranks in the middle of public Big Ten universities for tuition costs, a standing that is not expected to change with these increases.
