Tuition has been increasing at UVM for the past few years, and that trend looks to continue. Students looking to save money on their education can take advantage of our degree completion programs, which allow students to finish their degrees in a shorter amount of time than it would take if they had started as a freshman.

Hiring freezes will be across the board and we may not be able to fill positions that are currently vacant. Retention freezes will affect faculty members whose contracts are up for renewal or who have been on leave without pay status since September 1st, 2019. Employee reductions include all staff other than tenured faculty members with tenure protection rights (i.e., department chairs). We understand that these actions will impact our students, parents and communities in ways beyond just tuition costs.
Tuition increases reflect both state appropriations levels which have been below inflation for nearly two decades now, as well as our own efforts over the past several years to reduce costs so that families don’t face additional burdens when paying for college education at UVM
These actions have helped control cost growth, but they have not been enough.
Tuition has increased by more than 10% over the past five years. This is partly due to rising costs, but it’s also a result of declining state support for higher education and other funding challenges we face. The University’s current tuition model has not kept pace with inflation over time, even though our revenues have grown significantly. These actions have helped control cost growth, but they have not been enough.
We are facing a challenging environment that requires us to take additional steps to manage costs while ensuring access and affordability for students from all backgrounds who want to attend UVM and make this community their home.#ENDWRITE
Some actions have been taken to reduce expenses in recent years.
The University of Vermont has taken several actions to reduce expenses in recent years. In 2018, the university reduced its workforce by 3% and increased use of temporary faculty and staff by 8%. Additionally, the university has implemented a variety of new initiatives that aim to increase revenue and reduce cost growth.
For the 2018-19 academic year, state appropriations were cut by $2 million, which was partially offset by tuition revenues.
For the 2018-19 academic year, state appropriations were cut by $2 million, which was partially offset by tuition revenues. The university faced these reductions without resorting to the kinds of drastic measures that have been taken at other universities in response to shrinking state funding. Instead of slashing teaching staff or increasing class sizes, UVM has hired one new faculty member and reduced administrative costs by 2 percent. It also froze freshman enrollment for the second year in a row and is planning no increases in tuition for next year
This bodes well for students seeking scholarships, but more needs to be done beyond this measure.
Tuition is the biggest expense for students and their families, so it stands to reason that they should be able to get as much financial aid as possible. The university is looking for ways to cut costs, raise revenue and increase efficiency in order to reduce tuition prices further in the future. This bodes well for students seeking scholarships but more needs to be done beyond this measure.
The university has been raising tuition over the past few years in an attempt right their financial situation
For the past few years, tuition at UVM has been increasing as a result of decreased state funding. The university has been trying to control costs by reducing expenses and increasing revenue, but raising tuition is one way that they have been able to offset the loss of funding from the state. As a result, students now pay much more for their education than they did in the past.
Tuition has been steadily increasing over the past few years. Tuition increases are likely to continue at UVM as it continues to face financial challenges that can only be solved by raising revenue. However, students and parents should know that these increases will not affect them personally unless they have scholarships or other forms of financial aid tied directly to tuition costs.
