Minister defends that unfreezing tuition fees does not discourage higher education students
The government plans to unfreeze undergraduate tuition fees starting in the 2027/2028 academic year, updating them according to the inflation rate. The Minister of Education stated that the increase will be offset by a new social support model, ensuring the net effect on students remains neutral.
Why it mattersIf you are a student or a parent planning for higher education, expect tuition fees to rise with inflation starting in the 2027/2028 academic year, though the government claims increased social support will cover these adjustments.
