Brigham Young University will implement a 2.9 percent increase for undergraduate tuition and a 2.8 percent increase for graduate tuition for the 2016-2017 academic year. This will bring the undergraduate rate per semester from $2,575 to $2,650.
The increase is intended to cover cost increases in areas such as supplies, library and laboratory materials and travel.
Next year's tuition for advanced-standing (graduate) students will be raised from $3,250 to $3,340 per semester, an increase of $90, or 2.8 percent. Law School and Graduate School of Management students will pay $6,155, an increase of $170 from last year's rate of $5,985.
Undergraduate tuition for spring and summer terms will also increase from $1,288 to $1,325, or $38 more. Spring/summer 2015 rates for advanced-standing students will be $1,670, an increase of $45.
Students who are not members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints pay twice the listed tuition rates, and those rates in 2016-2017 will also reflect the 2.9 percent increase for undergraduate and 2.8 percent increase for graduate programs.
Non-LDS undergraduates will pay $5,300, an increase of $150; advanced-standing non-LDS students will pay $6,680, an increase of $180; and non-LDS law and business graduate students will pay $12,310, an increase of $340.
