OU, Miami University mulling tuition increases


COLUMBUS (AP) — Trustees meet Friday at both Ohio University and Miami University and are expected to vote on proposals to raise tuition at those schools by 3.5 percent, the maximum allowed under the state budget plan.

Ohio’s tuition and fees would go up $334 to $9,871, and Miami’s cost would rise by $427 to an annual $12,625.

The University of Cincinnati’s budget for the next school year also calls for a 3.5 percent tuition increase. A resident undergraduate from Ohio would pay $10,419, an increase of $354.
