PLEASE NOTE: According to the Tuition Policy Principles of the UW System Board of Regents, “Where general budget increases are not sufficient to maintain educational quality, supplemental tuition increases should assist in redressing the imbalance between needs and resources” (Section 32-5.4). In addition the Tuition Policy Principles state, "Tuition increases should be moderate and predictable, subject to the need to maintain quality" (Section 32-5.5). Thus, tuition is subject to change at any time as determined by the UW Board of Regents.
