A tuition hike is coming this year for in-state undergrads at Pennsylvania's state universities.
It is their first hike since 2018.
Tuition is set to go up by 3.6%, or nearly $280 per year at schools like West Chester, Kutztown, Cheyney and Millersville universities.
That would bring a full-year tuition to nearly $8,000.
Meanwhile, Penn State's board of trustees will meet Friday to hammer out a final budget.
They could decide to hike tuition by 2% for the 2026-27 school year for in-state, undergrads on the main campus.
The state system's board of governors says tuition will come back down if state lawmakers in Harrisburg approve more funding.
