Students at the University of Tennessee Knoxville will not see a tuition increase for the next school year, while other campuses will see increases around 2%.
UT Knoxville tuition and fees will remain flat for the second year in a row, the board of trustees voted Friday. UT Chattanooga will have a 2% increase, and UT Martin will have a 1.7% increase in the 2021-22 school year.
