UConn raising tuition for medical, dental schools

STORRS, CONN. — Tuition and fees will increase 4 percent in each of the next two years for medical and dental students at the University of Connecticut.

The Board of Trustees voted Wednesday without debate to approve the hikes, which are on top of a 5 percent increase that went into effect before the start of this school year.

The tuition and fees will rise from $37,032 to $40,054 over the next two years for in-state students. The cost would go from $66,494 for out-of-state students to $71,920.
