The Colleges Tuition Bill
West Virginia bill would let colleges raise tuition per credit
Per-Credit Tuition for WV Community Colleges
Bad for everyday people ·
If passed, the bill would let community colleges charge higher per‑credit tuition, making students pay more for each class they take.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Students could see their tuition bills go up, especially if they take many credits, while colleges get more money to cover costs and projects. Now is the time to speak up before the bill moves forward.
