Schools in Illinois with the Biggest Tuition Increases for the 2015-16 Academic Year
If you're a prospective college student or the parent of one, you'll want to know which universities are hiking tuition and by how much.
The Illinois Student Assistance Commission, a state-run organization that provides financial assistance to students, has compiled a list of tuition changes at four-year public and private not-for-profit universities for the upcoming 2015-16 school year.
In order to provide an apples-to-apples comparison, the commission used base rates for freshman students since tuition could vary depending on the type of program or school (e.g. engineering, business, medicine, etc).
Here are the top five public and private schools that are hiking tuition the most from 2014-15.
