Undergraduate Tuition and tuition and fee prices published by the public higher Fees at Public Four-Year Institutions education institutions in the WICHE region for 2017-18, including changes over the past one-, five- and 10-year $30,000 periods. For the first time, this annual series also $25,858 displays the one-, five-, and 10-year trends of $25,000 mandatory student fees separate from total tuition and $20,231 fees. $20,000 During the decade encompassed by this report, 2007- 08 to 2017-18, tuition and fees at public two-year $15,000 institutions (without California) and four-year institutions $9,328 increased 31.2 percent and 54.3 percent, respectively $10,000 when adjusted for inflation (Figures 1 and 2).1 The $6,044 largest cumulative change in tuition and fees occurred $5,000 between 2007-08 and 2011-12, when year-over-year increases were considerably higher than the rates of $0 increase between 2012-13 and 2017-18. This year’s 2007-08 2012-13 2017-18 annual increases are more substantial than the more Resident Non-Resident recent five-year’s rates of increase for the WICHE region and may suggest a resumption of the previous trend. A forthcoming WICHE Insights report in Spring 2018 will examine the tuition and fees trends in light of state higher education funding and student aid, and policy implications related to these trends. Tuition and Fees Figure 2. Undergraduate Tuition and The average enrollment-weighted tuition and fees for Fees at Public Two-Year Institutions resident undergraduates at public four-year institutions in the region were $9,328 in 2017-18, an increase of $12,000 $10,332 $358 (4.0 percent) from 2016-17.2 The average tuition $10,000 $9,092 and fees for non-resident undergraduates at public $9,393 four-year institutions averaged $25,858 and increased $8,000 by $1,015 (4.1 percent) compared to the 2016-17 rate. $7,802 $6,000 The average weighted tuition and fees for resident, in- $3,739 district students at public two-year institutions in the $4,000 $2,849 region (without California) was $3,739, in 2017-18. $2,180 $2,000 This was a one-year increase of $155 (4.3 percent) $1,548 compared to 2016-17. Out-of-district tuition and fees at $0 public two-year colleges in the region (without 2007-08 2012-13 2017-18 California) averaged $10,332 in 2017-18, an increase Resident w/o CA Non-Resident w/o CA of $210 (2.1 percent) from 2016-17. Resident Non-Resident Tuition and fees for resident graduate students in 2017-18 at public four-year institutions averaged $11,579, an increase of $334 (3.0 percent) compared to 2016-17. Non-resident tuition and fees for graduate students were $25,554, which was an increase of $630 (2.2 percent) from 2016-17. iv Student Fees For the first time, WICHE calculated average mandatory fees for each institution, state and the region. In addition, one-, five-, and 10-year fees rates are displayed, as well as what percent of total tuition and fees they represent.3 On average, fees for resident undergraduates at public four-year institutions in the WICHE region decreased by $479 in the ten years since 2007-08, and from 38.1 percent to 15.2 percent of total tuition and fees. Meanwhile, average fees for resident undergraduates at public two- year institutions increased by $183 since 2007-08, and remain relatively unchanged as a percent of the total compared to a decade ago, 9.4 percent in 2007-08 and 10.8 percent in 2017-18. There is wide variation across institutions and states in the region in terms of fee rates, fee trends separate from tuition, and fees as a percent of total tuition and fees. WICHE intends to explore student fee trends in more detail in its spring 2018 edition of the Tuition and Fees WICHE Insights. 1 Figures 1 and 2 show the weighted average tuition and fees for resident and non-resident undergraduates. Dollar amounts are converted to constant 2017 dollars using the Higher Education Cost Adjustment (HECA). Information about this calculation is located in Appendix G. 2 This report presents published tuition and fees amounts as averages both unweighted and weighted by full-time equivalent enrollments. Unlike unweighted averages, which treat each institution equally no matter how big or small it is, enrollment- weighted averages provide a truer estimate of the published price a typical student faces based on enrollment patterns. Appendix G provides more information regarding enrollment weighting. 3 WICHE asks respondents to report mandatory student fees as the required institutional fees that a majority of lower division full-time students are required to pay in addition to tuition, not including costs for books and supplies. This report does not include fees for graduate students due to wide variability in fees across graduate programs. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements iii Key Takeaways iv WICHE Region Averages, 2007-08 to 2017-18 1 1a.
