CEDAR FALLS – The Iowa Board of Regents continues to meet in Cedar Falls this week and approved proposed conditional tuition and mandatory fees for the 2017-2018 academic year, boosting the cost to college students by 2% at the state universities.
Students at the University of Iowa will pay $7,270, up from $7,128 this year. Students at the Iowa State University and University of Northern Iowa will pay $7,240, up from $7,098. Mandatory fees also increased.

The board also pondered a potential 2% increase for the 2018-2019 year, but no action was taken on that idea.
Later Tuesday, the board will announce the next president at the University of Northern Iowa.
