“We want to find some way to offset rising tuition, ... We are looking at fees. Some of them are going up and don't need to be.”
Andrew Burke
“With the Ontario lift on the tuition fee freeze and the rising costs associated with sending a child to post-secondary education, it is becoming increasingly important for parents to start saving as early as possible. Not only will saving early set the financial foundation for a child's education, it also demonstrates to a child that you are taking steps to help them pursue a post-secondary education, helping to align their goals from an early age.”
Peter Lewis
“A little over $40,000, when you think about both tuition, as well as room and board and student fees, is so expensive. However, the good part of that story, especially for Bates, is that average freshman aid packages total up to about $21,000 per student coming in as a first year. And again, that's not a loan that a student is forced to take out, that is grant aid given out from the university.”
Robert Franek
“We see the strike and the tuition fee increase as two sides of the same coin. There aren't enough resources in the system to prevent these problems.”
Jesse Greener
“The funding (for the lease payments) is going to have to come from student fees or tuition or things of that sort,”
Jim Rogers
“We all know that tuition is an issue; we all know that fees on campus are an issue. But if this is something that we can fix, and it is just a matter of rallying our professors behind it, then it is something that we talked about, ... We need to find a way to tackle this issue in a proactive, non-abrasive manner because we don't want to upset the faculty; we want to encourage them to make this a priority.”
Joe Franco
“The idea is that students who prepare themselves academically in high school will be assured tuition and fees will be paid for them at the community college level.”
