SALT LAKE CITY — The State Board of Regents on Friday approved Weber State University’s request for a 5 percent increase in tuition, along with increases for the eight other public, state-funded colleges and universities.

Increases take effect summer term, which for Weber State begins in late May.

“Higher education saw a budget increase from the Legislature this year for the first time since 2008,” said Bill Sederburg, Utah Commissioner of Higher Education. “Fortunately, the Legislature made support for higher education a priority this year, but in order to hold funding per student constant, we still need to make up for lack of funding in previous years.”
