A House of Delegates subcommittee is recommending $240 million in new funding for Virginia’s colleges, but it comes with a catch. Colleges are expected to limit tuition hikes to no more than 3%.
In a report released Sunday, the subcommittee for higher education released a proposal it says will increase access to college, hold down costs and enhance the quality of education.
It is the latest sign that the cost of college in Virginia could rise after largely staying flat the past three years.
