Abbott Orders Tuition Freeze Extended
Description
Governor Greg Abbott is cracking down on tuition hikes across Texas public colleges, demanding all institutions hold the line on fees for the upcoming school year — even as some universities quietly plan increases for non-academic services like mental health and athletics. While schools cite rising student needs and costs, Abbott insists affordability is non-negotiable for Texas’s future workforce, pointing to recent state investments of over a billion dollars in higher education funding. He’s also pushing lawmakers to extend the freeze beyond 2026-2027, framing state support as essential to keeping college accessible for all Texans.
