<p>Okay, I just find out about this: <a href="http://www.utexas.edu/tuition/longhorn_fixed_tuition.html#fixed_1">http://www.utexas.edu/tuition/longhorn_fixed_tuition.html#fixed_1</a></p>
<p>From what I read, it's seems like our tuition would stay the same for four years regardless of anything, right? Can anybody explain for me the pros and cons of this and whether or not should I signed up?</p>
<p>I don’t think there are any cons lol</p>
<p>Yeah but that also means for this year I will have to pay more tuition than other students.</p>
<p>Really where does it say that?
Isn’t that better than it going up each year or??!!</p>
<p>@foafoa I was thinking this same thing. I’m not sure if it’s worth it… I would be paying about $400 more per semester this year. And I’m not really sure how much tuition is going to increase… This is something worth looking into though - “Students who enroll in Longhorn Fixed Tuition and graduate in four years will be eligible for a total of $3,500 in rebates. The rebates will be paid upon graduation.”</p>
<p>It said on the website, if you go with the Longhorn fixed tuition program, you would have to pay like more than $600 more than the regular tuition. Also, since I’m a transfer with 47 credits, I think I would stay at UT for 3 years only. I’m not really sure if it is worth it to pay extra. </p>
<p>And about the rebate, according to the website “The eligibility requirements for the tuition rebates will be similar to those that are in place for existing rebate programs.” I have no idea what the “similarity” is but let say if it is the same with the $1000 tuition rebate then it would be tough to get it since you cannot exceed more than 3 hours beyond the minimum number of hours required for the degree. I have take a few easy social study classes that I don’t actually need just to raise my GPA.</p>
<p>I read that as long as you graduate within 4 years, you’re eligible for the rebate</p>
