Tuition increases approved at U of S
It's going to cost more for students going to the University of Saskatchewan in the upcoming 2013-14 academic year.
Tuition hikes of an average 4.5 per cent, first suggested last spring, have been approved.
“We have not and will not set tuition rates to balance the budget,” said Susan Milburn, chair of the board of governors in a news release.
Instead, the U of S said the increases are necessary to recruit and keep high-quality faculty, enhance students' educational experiences and provide scholarships and bursaries.
