TOME â For the fourth year in a row, the local higher education governing body has voted to keep student tuition costs flat.
At a special meeting last month, The University of New Mexico-Valencia campus Advisory Board voted 3-0 to not increase student tuition in the 2021 school year.
Resident tuition for the 2021-22 school year will remain at $78.25 per credit hour, including fees, and non-resident tuition will remain at $213.75 per credit hour, including fees.
The three board members who participated in the meeting â Chairman Paul Luna, Secretary Belinda Martinez and board member Russell Griego â agreed this wasnât the time for a tuition increase, given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
