Michigan Technological University Will Increase Housing Costs on Campus in 2024-25

Michigan Technological University will increase the institution’s rate of room and board in 2024  and 2025. At a recent board of trustees meeting last week, Michigan Tech approved increasing room and board costs going into next school year. The Daily Mining Gazette reported on Sunday, that the university raised rates by about four percent across campus, to 13,020 dollars for a double room and full meal plan. Students living in university apartments or having individual living arrangements will see the largest increases in living costs.

In May 2023 the university approved plans to construct a new residence hall on the east end of campus in the former Rozsa Center parking lot. The project approved final designs in August with construction fencing going up soon after. Michigan Tech plans to open the new East Hall in the fall of 2024.

At the start of the 2023-24 school year, the university started a housing assistance program for students struggling to find a place that called on generous residents in the community named HOWL for Huskies.
