DEPTFORD TWP. -- Students attending Rowan College at Gloucester County in the fall could see a $2 per credit increase to their tuition.
The proposed budget of approximately $42.2 million was approved by the college's Board of Trustees and includes an increase in tuition and fees for students.
Tuition for students will increase from $97 to $99 a credit, a $2 increase. General fees will also see an increase from $38.50 to $40.50, a $2 increase. These increases will mean each credit will now cost $139.50.
Along with the tuition and fees, the college will receive money from the state and county to equate the remainder of the budget. The state's allocation totals $5.3 million and the county's allocation totals $7.6 million.
