University of Minnesota to raise tuition this fall

The St. Paul Pioneer Press (http://bit.ly/2rRgyB5 ) reports that the university's board voted Tuesday to approve university President Eric Kaler's recommended budget, which will raise tuition by 2 percent for Minnesota residents and 12.5 percent for nonresidents at the Twin Cities campus.

Undergraduates at the university's four other campuses will have 1 percent tuition increases, though Duluth nonresidents will see their rate climb 5.5 percent.
