ATLANTA — State regents say they plan policy changes next month that would allow the board — rather than state lawmakers — to make decisions on tuition waivers for out-of-state students at Georgia colleges and universities.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://bit.ly/JJHQ1y) that the regents acknowledged Wednesday that guidelines for out-of-state tuition waivers need to be improved.
In December, a state audit found that the University System of Georgia waived about $106 million in out-of-state tuition during the 2012-2013 school year. Nonresident tuition was almost $9,300 more per semester than in-state tuition at some schools that year.
