Wayne State University has come up with a plan to help ease some of the
financial burden of rising tuition rates for next semester and beyond.
The
five-part plan finds a number of ways to help save students money or
gives them more time to pay college costs. For instance, Wayne State
has established a tuition and fee grace period for next semester,
allowing students to register for classes even if they haven't paid all
of their bills in full up to $1,500.
Wayne State will also continue to invest in its new economy-based curriculum, giving students more options of finding good jobs.
Wayne
State is also offering financial help for students via one-on-one
counseling. The idea is to help them figure out their needs and explain
what options they have financially. It will also offer seminars on
financial aid, planning and management. The first seminars will be held
on Dec. 13.
The university is establishing a temporary
Student Response Center to help fulfill this need. For more information, call (313) 577-3378.
