Indiana University of Pennsylvania will drop its flat tuition rate and replace it will per-credit pricing.
The change is for full-time, in-state students.
IUP announced the new pricing early last year (2015) but didn’t implement it this past fall. The school announced Monday it will implement it this fall.
The move is meant to boost revenue at the school and to discourage full-time students from dropping courses. The per-credit tuition fee will add $565 to the bill of a student taking 15 credit hours per semester.
IUP is one of 14 state-owned universities that are part of the State System of Higher Education.
