Penn State Sets 2009-10 Tuition Rates
On Friday, July 17, the University’s Board of Trustees approved Penn State’s 2009-10 tuition rates, ratifying the lower of two possible tuition scenarios—for the lowest tuition increase in the University’s recent history. This results in the following tuition changes for students at Penn State Erie, The Behrend College.
-- Lower-division Commonwealth Campus students at Penn State Behrend, defined as those who have completed less than 59.1 credits, who are Pennsylvania residents (in-state) will see a 3.9 percent tuition increase, which translates to $226 per semester ($5,971 total tuition per semester).
-- Tuition information for Penn State Behrend’s upper-division, graduate and out-of-state students can be found here.
