Two weeks after high school graduations many colleges are announcing their tuition rates for the fall. The University of Alabama System Board of Trustees has approved tuition increases ranging from 2.5% to 4% for the 2024-2025 academic year on Friday.


Resident and non-resident students at the University of Alabama, University of Alabama-Birmingham, and University of Alabama-Huntsville campuses will be subject to the increase.


"Each year we carefully and seriously consider our university's tuition rates and anytime there is a proposed change it is necessary to advance our system-wide commitment to academic excellence, ensure financial stability, and manage increasing costs. Tuition revenue is used to support the academic operations of our universities in educating our students and supporting their success," Dana Keith, Vice Chancellor for Finance and Administration for The University of Alabama System, said in a committee meeting on Thursday.
