維吉尼亞大學(xué)學(xué)費將增長11%：增長率為全美最高
出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)訊 維吉尼亞大學(xué)新通過的一項計劃規(guī)定對大一新生的學(xué)費增長11%，并稱此舉動旨在為急需學(xué)費的學(xué)生設(shè)立基金以支撐他們順利完成學(xué)業(yè)，并提出了“高學(xué)費，高援助”的概念，然而有些學(xué)生對此表示懷疑..
The home-state price of entry at the University of Virginia will rise 11 percent next fall — one of the highest college tuition-and-fee increases in the nation — under a plan approved Tuesday that also aims to slash the debt burden for students in need.
The university’s governing Board of Visitors voted overwhelmingly for a plan that was kept under wraps until its members met in afternoon session in Charlottesville.
維尼吉亞大學(xué)在周四通過的一項計劃中規(guī)定，大一新生的學(xué)費在明年將增長11%，它是美國學(xué)費增長率最高的大學(xué)之一，但同時也降低了學(xué)生的還款負(fù)擔(dān)。
The action means that annual tuition and fees for Virginians who enter their public flagship university as freshmen in the next school year will total $14,468, up from the current charge of $12,998. That doesn’t include room and board. For current undergraduate students, however, the increase will be lower: 3.6 percent. That is more in line with other increases at U-Va. in recent years.
此計劃 把大一新生的學(xué)費從12,998美元上調(diào)為14,468美元, 其中并不包括寄宿費等費用。然而對于大二大三大四的學(xué)生，學(xué)費增長率就相對低一點：3.6%.
John Griffin, a board member who spearheaded the plan, said it will help U-Va. raise funds to set new caps on the amount of money it expects students in need to borrow over four years.
此計劃的倡導(dǎo)者是John Griffin，他表明通過增長學(xué)費可以為那些急缺學(xué)費的學(xué)生建立一個基金。
Lewis said he had heard the plan was to raise revenue for financial aid and other purposes — a model some describe as “high tuition/high aid.” Lewis, “I’m really concerned about the corporatization and privatization of higher education,” he said.
Lewis說他聽說這個計劃的概念是“高學(xué)費，高援助”，他對這種說法表示懷疑。他表明：“我非常擔(dān)心高等教育的私人化和企業(yè)化。”
