Incoming Michigan State freshman could see a rise in housing costs

Posted

EAST LANSING, Mich. — This Friday, the Michigan State University Board of Trustees will decide on whether or not to raise first-year residence hall rates by nearly 7%.

The board cited rising inflation as part of the reason for the increase.

If the new rates are adopted, first-year residents will see an increase of $316 dollars per year.

The board says that MSU will still be competitive among Big Ten schools even if these new rates are implemented.

The board will meet at 9 a.m. on April 21 in the Board Room of the Hannah Administration Building.
