Tuition
Student Regent Arliegh Cayanan was the only regent who opposed the tuition increase.
The tuition increase aims to provide the university with additional funding in the form of tuition waivers to support students’ mental health and “basic needs,” according to the Board of Regents agenda.
Mary Jo Gonzales, WSU vice president of Student Affairs, said university general health and mental health services vary depending on campus, but they hope to increase access to resources.
WSU is trying to pursue a way to create equity within the system. The university has been working on a system-wide effort to provide students with telehealth and telemental health services, Gonzales said.

For graduate students, tuition would go up $295 per year for state residents ($11,781 to $12,076) and $647 ($25,879 to $26,526) for out-of-staters. Residents and nonresidents attending WSU’s Global campus, meanwhile, are facing increases of between $255 and $295 per year.
