Lehigh’s board of trustees approved a 4.5 percent increase in undergraduate tuition for the 2016-17 academic year. Tuition will increase by $2,060, from $45,860 to $47,920. The total cost of attending Lehigh as an undergraduate will now be approximately $61,010 — including tuition, typical room and board charges and the undergraduate technology fee. This increase results in the university’s cost of attendance being more than $60,000 for the first time.
