Cal State tuition will not increase in the fall, chancellor says

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Great news for Cal State students - their tuition won't cost more in the fall.

Cal State University Chancellor Timothy White said the decision was made because Cal State anticipates the largest state funding increase in its history.


Gov. Gavin Newsom has proposed a $300 million increase in ongoing permanent funding for Cal State.

Besides keeping tuition where it stands now, the funding will also help the university system's initiative to raise graduation rates.
