Joining the University of South Carolina – Columbia and several other schools, Clemson University announced its tuition freeze for in-state students for the third year in a row but is increasing out-of-state tuition.
Clemson is receiving $10 million from the state in recurring funding, equating to a 5% increase for in-state tuition.
Executive Vice President for Finance and Operations Tony Wagner recommended the freeze on in-state tuition and increasing tuition on the Federal Reserve analysis which stated inflation in the area had risen 17%.
