Missouri State Tuition Increase

Students at Missouri State University could be seeing a tuition hike of up to 375 dollars per year.

The Board of Governors for the University approved tuition increases on Wednesday. University President Cliff Smart says that the amount could be reduced or waived.

“We have requested an adjustment to our state appropriation,” Smart said in a PR statement, “Thanks to the work of our legislative leaders, our request has been well received and we are hopeful that it will be approved.

“While we approved an increase in tuition and fees today, we hope that state revenues will allow an increase in our state funding. If that happens, the board will consider waiving some portion of the increases or phasing them in over several years.”

The board approved a tuition increase of 5% but the actual amount that will be charged to students won’t be decided until June. Internet and duel credit fees will not see an increase.
