UC proposes annual tuition increases over five years

LOS ANGELES - The University of California is considering annual tuition increases over five years under a sweeping plan to raise more money for financial aid and campus needs.

The Los Angeles Times reports UC regents will consider two plans to raise fees at their meeting next Wednesday.

One plan calls for raising tuition and fees for all students annually by the cost of inflation.

The other would raise tuition and fees once for each incoming class but keep those costs flat for six years.
