BYU tuition to increase 3.3 percent in 2012-2013

Brigham Young University has announced a 3.3-percent increase across all tuition categories for the 2012-2013 academic year to cover rising costs at the university. This will bring the undergraduate rate per semester from $2,280 to $2,355, an increase of $75.

Next year's tuition for advanced-standing (graduate) students will be raised from $2,880 to $2,975 per semester, an increase of $95. Law School and Graduate School of Management students will pay $5,475, an increase of $175.

Undergraduate tuition for spring and summer terms will also increase from $1,140 to $1,178, or $38 more. Spring/summer2012 rates for advanced-standing students will be $1,488, an increase of $48.

As in the past, students who are not members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will pay twice the listed rates, and those rates will also reflect the 3.3-percent increase.

Non-LDS undergraduates will pay $4,710, an increase of $150; advanced-standing non-LDS students will pay $5,950, an increase of $190; and non-LDS law and business graduate students will pay $10,950, an increase of $350.
