PASSHE sets 2012-13 tuition rates

HARRISBURG, Pa. - The Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education board of governors has approved a 3 percent tuition increase for the 2012-13 academic year, honoring its commitment to the legislature and the governor and marking the fifth time in eight years the increase has been either at or below the rate of inflation.

The action was taken July 9. (read more)
