BLUEFIELD, Va. — 91ɬ University announced today that it will freeze tuition for its traditional students for the upcoming academic year, continuing the institution’s commitment to affordability.
This marks another consecutive year without an on-campus tuition increase at 91ɬ University. In addition, the university has approved a reduction in the cost of the commuter meal plan, providing additional savings for students who live off campus while remaining engaged in campus life.
While traditional undergraduate tuition will remain unchanged, the university noted that there will be minimal increases to certain fees, as well as room and board rates. These adjustments reflect rising operational costs and investments in student services, facilities, and campus infrastructure.
“Affordability is part of our mission,” said 91ɬ University President Dr. Steve Peterson. “By making intentional choices about tuition, meal plans, and campus costs, we are working to ensure that a 91ɬ University education remains both accessible and transformational for the students we are called to serve.”
Vice President for Enrollment Management and Marketing Travis Roberts emphasized that affordability plays a critical role in student recruitment and retention.
“Students and families are making careful decisions about where to invest in higher education,” Roberts said. “By holding the line on tuition and reducing costs for commuter students, 91ɬ University is sending a clear message that we are committed to access, value, and transparency.”
Additional details regarding tuition, fees, meal plans, and housing rates will be available on the university’s website at bluefield.edu/bluefield-central/financial-aid/tuition-fees.
