State Budget Cuts Lead To Tuition Hikes At Washington Universities

College tuition is getting more expensive at Washington State University and Eastern Washington University.

On Monday, the WSU Board of Regents approved a 16 percent tuition increase that will start this fall to make up for vast budget cuts it received from Washington State.

The Tuition Flexibility Bill Signed into law Monday by Governor Chris Gregoire gives universities the right to make that tuition increase.
