Universities will have to reinvest 15% of tuition revenue in social action

The government's 2027 State Budget proposal mandates that higher education institutions reinvest 15% of tuition fee revenue into social support services. Starting in the 2027/2028 academic year, tuition fees will be unthawed and updated annually based on inflation, though the government maintains that a new scholarship regulation based on local study costs and family income will protect disadvantaged students.
