The
Board of Trustees of New College of Florida approved a 5 percent
increase in tuition that amounts to a $3.86 per credit hour increase for
students in the spring semester 2008. The increase is for
matriculation alone. None of the other fees that comprise tuition costs,
such as the health fee and the activities and service fee, will increase
in the spring.
New College students who paid $104.78
per-credit hour in fall 2007 will pay $108.64 per-credit hour
for the spring semester. Non-Florida-resident students who paid $600.70
per-credit hour will pay $604.56 per-credit hour. The
increase amounts to $61.76 per student taking 16 credit hours for the
spring.
The increase follows the directive of the Florida
Board of Governors, which is the governing body over the 11 colleges in
the State University System (SUS) of Florida, for a mandatory tuition
increase for all SUS undergraduates approved in September, and the
Florida Legislature's approval of the statewide tuition hike in its
special session in October. Florida Gov. Charles Crist has signed the
Legislature's revised budget, including the tuition increase.
