AKRON, Ohio-The University of Akron is implementing tuition, housing, dining, parking rate increases, and other fee adjustments for fall despite delaying approval of their budget until September due to financial uncertainties, including enrollment figures for the next year. Full-time students taking 12 credit hours will face an additional $191.28 per semester in tuition costs. The Board of Trustees opted for temporary spending authority through September to await more stable enrollment projections and financial aid information. This decision coincides with the recent appointment of President R.J. Nemer, following the retirement of Gary Miller, aiming to stabilize fiscal predictability by the start of the fall 2024 semester.
