The Signal - Santa Clarita Valley News - UC hike may flood COC


The Signal - Santa Clarita Valley News - UC hike may flood COC:

"As University of California tuition rises, the overflow of students who can't afford the higher price tag might flood community colleges like College of the Canyons, officials said Monday.

UC officials last week raised tuition 32 percent to more than $10,000 a year for undergraduate fees - about triple the cost of a decade ago. This latest blow to California's higher-education system threatens to heap more of a burden on inexpensive community colleges."
