In late March of last year, UR hiked tuition by 3.5% and room and board by 4.4% (source: http://www.rochester.edu/news/show.php?id=8562).

Does anyone have an idea what this year’s increases might be and when they will be announced?

Based upon historical precedent, COA increases are announced in the latter half of March.

Here’s the search at Campus Times (UR’s campus newspaper) with announcements for the past decade or so:

Tuition increases in the 3.5 to 5% range seem to be the norm for the past ~5 years.

According to a notice sent to incoming freshmen, tuition will be $47,450 , room $8836, board $5530, and mandatory fees of $834.

@Marylandfour: good info.

So then the increase for tuition from the 2014-2015 school year ($46,150) to the 2015-2016 school year ($47,450) is about 2.8% and the increase in room and board from 2014-2015 ($13,638) to 2015-2016 ($14,366) is about 5.3%.
