Students enrolled at California State University next fall will see their tuition spike 6% annually for the next five years — an increase that will affect 460,000 students across the Golden State.
The new tuition increase, scheduled through the 2028-29 academic year, brings the bill for the fall 2024 semester to $6,084, a bump of $342. By the spring 2029 semester, full-time undergraduates would be required to pay $7,682 for the academic year, while higher-level programs, such as a doctorate in public health, would total about $25,000 per year. Around 20% of students pay full tuition, while around 80% — more than 380,000 students received some financial aid in the 2021-22 school year.
CSU’s budget is primarily funded from California state budget subsidies and tuition revenues. Neither of those, though, have kept up with the ever-increasing costs of operating the nation’s largest state university system, according to the May report. About 60% of the CSU’s operating budget is funded by the state, down from about 90% in the 1980s, while the remaining 40% comes from tuition revenue.
Crowds rallied outside the meeting in Long Beach, with students and professors speaking against the tuition spikes. Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, who sits on the CSU’s board of trustees, spoke about the “unintended consequences” of the tuition hike, and recommended delaying the vote until those consequences are fully understood.
