DURHAM N.H.
Tuition and financial aid are going up for students of New Hampshire’s university system.
The system board of trustees approved a budget on Thursday that hikes tuition an average of nearly 7 percent for in-state students and 5 percent for out-of-staters.
The board also approved increasing financial aid by 11 percent.
Tuition, room and board and fees for in-state students at UNH rise to $19,238. The cost of attending Plymouth State and Keene State rises to nearly $16,000 dollars. Students at the Manchester campus will pay $8,250.
Out-of-state students will pay just more than $32,000 at UNH, just more than $23,000 at Keene and Plymouth and nearly $21,000 at the Manchester campus.
The increases were part of a $384 million operating budget, a 5.1 percent increase from the current budget, not including financial aid, the trustees said.
