STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Penn State will impose its first tuition increase for incoming in-state undergraduate students since the 2017-18 school year.

Under a plan approved by trustees on Thursday, incoming Pennsylvania resident students will see a 2.5% tuition increase at all campuses for the 2021-22 school year. At the University Park campus, that will mean a per-semester increase of $224, to $9,184, while the per-semester increase at the Commonwealth Campuses will range from $162 to $184, depending on the campus.

Under the plan, out-of-state undergraduate students and all graduate students will see tuition increase by 2.75%.

The student fee will remain flat for full-time students at the University Park campus.
