It will cost more for out-of-state undergraduates to attend the University of Wisconsin.  The Board of Regents approved increases during a meeting at Madison today.  Resident undergraduate tuition and fees will remain under eleven-thousand-dollars.  Non-resident undergraduate tuition will rise at seven campuses including Madison which will increase by 743-dollars next fall.  Officials say the increase will generate millions of dollars in revenue.

The Board of Regents today extended the exemption to submit college admission test scores.  The exemption was first applied last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.  It is being extended because of the ongoing pandemic to the 2024-25 academic year.  That means incoming freshman looking to attend any of the campuses in the University of Wisconsin System won’t have to submit ACT or SAT test scores for admission.
