“On Monday, April 14, the Jacksonville State University Board of Trustees decided, in a unanimous vote on Resolution 515, to increase tuition for the first time in two years. . The fee required when applying to JSU is also increasing from $20 to $30.”
The Jacksonville State University Board of Trustees unanimously voted Monday on Resolution 515 to increase the tuition for the first time in two years.
