Nonresident graduation tuition would go up at Eau Claire, Green Bay, Oshkosh, Parkside, Stevens Point, Stout and Whitewater. Green Bay would see the largest jump, from $17,106 to $17,551.

Tuition for some specialty graduate programs would also increase, including physical therapy at La Crosse and Milwaukee; business programs at Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Parkside and Whitewater; speech pathology at Stevens Point; and computer science at Whitewater.

The regents’ education committee is set to vote on the plans Thursday with the full board set to vote Friday.
