The University of Wyoming is seeking public comment on recommendations regarding student tuition for the 2026-27 academic year. The UW Board of Trustees at their meeting September 24-26, are expected to act on the recommendations from the university administration, and public input will help inform the trustees’ decision. The board is being asked to consider an increase in standard tuition rates in line with the current tuition policy.
What is being proposed is a four percent increase in undergraduate and graduate base tuition rates for Wyoming residents and a four percent increase in undergraduate and graduate base distance tuition rates for nonresidents. Main campus graduate tuition rates for nonresidents would increase by four percent. Main campus undergraduate tuition rates for nonresidents would increase by one percent, and College of Law tuition rates would increase by at least four percent. A table, outlining the standard tuition rates for the 2025-26 academic year and the administration’s recommendations for the 2026-27 academic year, may be found here. Those wishing to comment on the tuition increase should go here. The deadline for written comments is 11:59 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 31.
