Oakland University in suburban Detroit has approved a tuition increase for the 2017-18 school year.
The 3.74 percent tuition increase approved Monday by the school's board is an average of new rates for full-time resident underclassmen and upperclassmen. The school says that in-state graduate students will see a tuition increase of 3.75 percent.
The new rates are part of the university's $271.5 million budget.
The Detroit News reports other public universities in Michigan are scheduled to set tuition rates in the coming weeks, with the University of Michigan approving rates on June 15, Michigan State University on June 21 and Wayne State University on June 23.
