CNC announces tuition and fee hikes

PRINCE GEORGE — Tuition and fee hikes are coming for students at the College of New Caledonia.

This as the school’s Board of Governors approved a two per cent increase to tuition and fees for domestic students and a four per cent increase for international students for courses starting on or after August 1, 2024 at its public meeting Friday (Sept.29).

The Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills requires post-secondary institutions in B.C. to abide by their tuition limit policy when making changes. The tuition limit policy caps domestic increases at two per cent annually but leaves international increases to the discretion of each individual institution.

CNC says it has the fourth lowest tuition for international students in the province and the second lowest tuition and fees for domestic students.
