PIERRE, S.D. (KELO.com) — The South Dakota Board of Regents wants to make sure that college remains affordable in South Dakota.
At their July meeting this week, a proposed tuition freeze was at the top of their list.
As a result of the legislature and governor’s efforts over the past two years, the Board secured general fund increases for Fiscal year 2023 and 24.
This funding allowed a freeze on tuition and fees while granting Board employees competitive salary increases.
The initial freeze on tuition in 2022 was fully financed by each university.
