St. John Fisher College to freeze tuition for upcoming academic year

PITTSFORD, N.Y. — St. John Fisher College plans a one-year tuition freeze at just over $34,000 for the upcoming 2020-2021 academic year.

The St. John Fisher College website lists a tuition figure of $34,340 for full-time undergraduate students.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the “financial impacts already felt by so many families,” the college’s administration has “committed to keeping costs at the prior year’s level,” per a St. John Fisher news release.

“We hope that this action will assist our families in a positive way in an otherwise uncertain time,” Gerard Rooney, president of St. John Fisher College, said.

For full-time undergraduate students, the tuition freeze will constitute savings of nearly $1,500 for residential students, and $1,200 for commuter students from what the tuition rate was supposed to be in the coming academic year, according to St. John Fisher.

Besides the tuition freeze, St. John Fisher has also announced that the summer semester will transition fully to online instruction and undergraduate courses “will be offered at a reduced rate.”
