HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The University of Hawaii is considering raising tuition and on Friday the public will have the chance to weigh in.
An undergraduate student at UH Manoa now pays $4,200 per semester.
Under the current proposal, next year's tuition could go up another $132, to $4,332 per semester.
In total, that would be about a $1,500 increase from what students currently pay.
The tuition hearing begins at 1 p.m. at the Windward Community College.
