(The Center Square) â Students at Georgiaâs public universities and colleges will pay the same amount in tuition and fees during the next academic year.
The Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia (USG) voted this month to freeze the rates for the second consecutive year. It is the fourth time in six years the USG board has not raised tuition rates.
âUSG over the past several years has remained committed to making public higher education as affordable as possible for students and their families, while maintaining results that rank our campuses among some of the best in the nation,â USG Chancellor Steve Wrigley said. âWe are grateful for the support of the board and state leaders toward this priority, and recognize studentsâ hard work, especially over the past year, to maintain success toward graduating and entering Georgiaâs workforce with college degrees.â
