No fee increases for TUT in 2017
Updated | By JacarandaFM News
The Council of the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) has resolved that no student at the institution will pay any fee increases for 2017.
This means fees will stay the same as in 2015.
Spokesperson Willa De Ruyter says TUT and the SRC signed a memorandum of agreement confirming that there will be no fee increases.
"To ensure that no TUT students experience a direct fee increment, the self-funded students, who account for an estimated 10 percent of the University's student body, will also be assisted by the University. This means no TUT student will experience any fee adjustment next year," says De Ruyter.
De Ruyter says despite ongoing protests for free higher education, the plan is to resume all classes without delay to complete the academic year.
"Students will be provided with the opportunity to retake tests or sit for tests missed as a result of protest action."
