<p>I’m currently a freshman at BU and the housing rates for next year 2010-2011 haven’t been released yet, so I was wondering if any BU parents or students can tell me how much the housing cost usually increases every year?</p>
<p>I tried talking to the housing department but they were no help.</p>
<p>The Board of Trustees has set the standard tuition rate for the 2010/2011 academic year at $39,314 and the basic room and board rate at $12,260. This represents a combined increase of 3.65 percent, the lowest percentage since 1969.</p>
