After careful deliberation and consideration, and as part of Penn State's ongoing commitment to control the cost of a degree, the University's Board of Trustees on July 17 passed an amended tuition and fees schedule that will see no base tuition increase for undergraduate students at all Penn State campuses, including University Park, for the 2015-16 academic year.
This is down from an initially proposed 1.99 percent aggregate increase recommended yesterday by the Committee on Finance, Business and Capital Planning. This represents the first time in 49 years that tuition has been held steady for undergraduate students from one year to the next.
