Colleges with constant tuition for four years

Applying to College
1

I wanted to find out which of my colleges will have same tuition fee for four years.

I tried searching the net, but couldn’t find anywhere it was mentioned.

What search term must I use? Some colleges like UIUC call it ‘guaranteed tuition’. What do other colleges call it?

Problem is, schools can change their policy. DS#1 went to a school that had a fixed tuition. Well, that is until the year he started, when they stopped that policy :frowning:

Purdue! President Mitch Daniels froze tuition (at least for a while).

@jym626‌, which school is that?

@Barfly, freezing tuition for a while isn’t really the same thing.

5

It is if they freeze it for all 4 years, no? But I think Purdue is only doing it 2 years at a time.

Purple titan, it was back in 2004.

Also search scholarships that cover increases in tuition

Yup those are great. DS#2 had that, so it increased every year. Learned our lesson from DS#1 :slight_smile:

As an international, I am not eligible for most of the scholarships in US.

I have applied for need-based aid on few of my schools, but I don’t know whether I’ll get it and even if I do, don’t know whether it’ll be increased every year.

Could someone tell whether GaTech and UMich also have this policy?

Don’t believe you can count on a state school to guarantee they wont raise tuition or fees.

Starting in 2015 Ohio University will have something called the Ohio Guarantee. It is full tuition and room and board at a fixed rate for 4 years.

I have a curiosity question: how many who advocate constant four-year tuition would be will to have zero pay raises – or other increases in compensation – for four years?
