Urbana University will not increase costs next school year in an effort to keep current students and attract new ones, University President Stephen Jones said. "What brought this about is this continuing economic situation that this region, really this nation, (is) in, but particularly this region," Jones said. Tuition increased at private, nonprofit colleges by an average of 4.6 percent nationwide in 2011-12, according to the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities.
