CHARLOTTE — A possible tuition hike could be coming to the University of North Carolina system.
Leaders say they are considering increasing undergraduate tuition by an average of $125 per year for in-state students and nearly $1,000 for out-of-state students.
If approved, the hike would go into effect for the 2026-27 academic year.
The system’s board of governors will consider the proposal next week.
There are 16 schools in the UNC System. The universities would generate $49 million in additional revenue from its proposed increases.
