RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – The Nevada System of Higher Education has approved a series of tuition adjustments to improve campus services and facilities.

Adjustments will be made at all NSHE locations to address a variety of needs, including cost-of-living adjustments, enhanced student services, and infrastructure improvements.

The following fees have been adjusted:

• Differential fees for specialized and high-demand programs throughout NSHE to facilitate hiring faculty, obtaining specialized equipment, and maintaining facilities.
• General tuition to improve campus-wide needs, such as expanding mental health services, infrastructure upgrades, and student academic programs.
