The Kansas Board of Regents approves a hike in tuition and fee rates at the six state universities for the 2025 fiscal year.

 

 The Regents made the move in order to increase need-based financial aid and to help deliver the workforce Kansas requires while keeping tuition affordable for Kansas families. Pittsburg State University will see and increase of 3.5% or $107.00 per semester. Kansas State will see an increase of 2.8% or $139.50 and KU's increase will be 3.5% or $186.00 per semester. Since Fiscal Year 2021, state funding for student financial assistance has increased from $24 million to nearly $97 million. This increase in state investment directly supports Kansas students with opportunities to secure a post-secondary education.
