The College of New Caledonia on Friday approved a two per tuition hike for domestic students and a four per cent rise for international students.
The increased rates take effect Aug. 1, 2024.
CNC is bound by the Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills to limit its annual tuition increase to two per cent for Canadian students but what international students get charged for tuition fees is up to each institution to decide.
“Whenever we make decisions on topics such as tuition, we carefully consider students’ needs as well as the costs of providing their educational programs to come to a recommendation,” said CNC president Dennis Johnson.
“The tuition changes for the coming year are at or below the rate of inflation and reflect our intention to keep college as accessible as we can.”
