Regarding the hugh UR tuition increase, I wonder if it applies to all students or only the new incoming students. It would be terribly unfair to place the burden of such a huge increase on current students, even those whose families could “afford” such an increase.

Our EFC was about $81k but we did not feel comfortable in shelling out $40k per year and our son’s decisionmaking process reflected this fact. If he had gone to UR, I’m not certain what we would have done.

BTW, one of his friends transferred from UR to the our state university this past year. She is a bit quirky and just never fit in socially. I suppose she is especially happy given the tuition increase.
