I made my decision about which law school to attend (UVA) by considering my financial situation and the tuition listed on the UVA law website. I calculated my three year tuition as being $143,700.
I sent in my deposit a little while ago.
I checked the website again yesterday and saw that the tuition has gone up, so that NOW the three year tuition for me would be $155,400.

I made the deposit based on one set of numbers, and now UVA changed the numbers on me. Is this an ethical action by UVA?

Re: UVA suddenly, drastically increases tuition
It plainly identifies that the costs are for a specific year though and says at the very beginning that each year COAs are established. So why would it be variable?

Re: UVA suddenly, drastically increases tuition
Schools increase tuition every single year. You won't pay 155k. You'll probably pay closer to 162-163k.TLSNerd wrote:I made my decision about which law school to attend (UVA) by considering my financial situation and the tuition listed on the UVA law website.

Re: UVA suddenly, drastically increases tuition
Are you using in-state / out-of-state tuition numbers correctly?
Hope you aren't paying sticker here...

Re: UVA suddenly, drastically increases tuition
Basically every top school does it. It is common knowledge that you need to factor in a ~5% tuition increase into your calculations every year.
