Regents set fiscal year 2024 tuition and fee rates at state universities
(Topeka, Kan.) – The Kansas Board of Regents (KBOR) approved tuition and fees at the six state universities for the upcoming year. After largely holding tuition flat for the past four years, the Regents approved increases at all state universities today.
“State university leaders have worked diligently the past four years to find efficiencies and keep costs for students as low as possible,” said KBOR Chair Jon Rolph. “At the same time, state universities are facing substantial inflationary pressure, and the new rates are necessary if our system is to continue to provide students with the quality education they deserve.”
The following table shows undergraduate tuition increases at the state universities for full-time students per semester for Fiscal Year 2024:

“Affordability remains a key area of focus for the Board,” said Chair Rolph. “In the past year, we’ve successfully advocated for a significant increase to need-based student financial aid, and we’re implementing initiatives such as open educational resources, a systemwide general education package and improved advising services that will help students save money and graduate on-time.”
