USI to propose no tuition increase at public forum June 5
June 3, 2025
The University of Southern Indiana is proposing that tuition and mandatory fees be held flat for the 2025-26 and 2026-27 academic years in response to a recommendation by the Governor and Indiana Commission for Higher Education, as well as a desire to maintain affordable educational excellence.
A hearing to solicit public comment will take place at 10 a.m. Thursday, June 5, in the Griffin Center.
Under Indiana Code, each state educational institution is required to set tuition and fees for a two-year period following the adoption of the State's biennial budget and to hold a public hearing before the adoption of any proposed rate increases.
The University recommends that the 2025-26 and 2026-27 per-semester, credit-hour student fee remain at the 2024-25 amount of $299.19 for Indiana resident undergraduate students; $446.94 for Indiana resident graduate students; $727.23 for non-resident undergraduate students; and $875.33 for non-resident graduate students.
It is also recommended that the other mandatory fees not be increased for 2025-26 and 2026-27.
