College Gets More Expensive for New Freshman, Others

The Georgia Board of Regents voted to allow tuition increases for incoming freshman. This comes with public institutions of higher learning in Georgia facing 275 million dollar budget shortfall in 2010.

To help make up the shortfall, freshman students at most of the campuses will face higher tuition fees. University of Georgia and Georgia Tech students will continue paying an extra one hundred dollar fee, while students at state college campuses will pay seventy five dollars per semester.

A full rundown of the fees can be found here.
