The Board of Trustees at North Carolina State University and the University of North Carolina at Pembroke both approved hikes on Friday.
N.C. State undergraduates paying in-state tuition will likely pay 5.1 percent, or $290, more next year, while in-state tuition for graduate students will go up 4.2 percent, or about $290.
Undergraduates at UNC-Pembroke will pay 6.6 percent more, or $199, and $88 more in fees.
On Thursday, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Board of Trustees approved a 10.3 percent increase, or $600, for in-state tuition for undergraduates and a 6.1 percent, or $1,630, increase for in-state graduates. Also approved was a 2.5 percent increase in fees – $46.79 for undergraduates and $46.61 for graduates.
The proposed campus tuition and fee increases still require approval from the University of North Carolina system and the General Assembly.
