What guidelines does the committee use to determine if tuition and fees need to be increased?
The benchmark that the committee uses is the most recent median of comparable institutions fees and tuition rates, looking at the 15 states comprising the Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education. The Board has to set student fees three years in advance, so future fees are based on a goal built on past data, guaranteeing that Nevada will always lag behind other states and have low student fees.
