MARQUETTE, MI— The Northern Michigan University Board of Trustees has set new tuition and fee rates for the coming academic year.
The combined cost for full-time resident undergraduates will be $6,324 per semester, an increase of $238 per semester, or 3.9 percent. Nonresident undergraduates will pay an additional $238 as well, while graduate tuition will go up by $24 per credit.
The university says it will invest another $900,000 in student financial aid.
NMU Vice President for Finance and Administration Gavin Leach said the proposal was developed around a projected state appropriation (as the legislative budget process had not yet concluded), an estimated enrollment outlook for fall, and escalating inflationary cost pressures for supplies and utilities.
