Georgetown University students should be prepared to shell out more in tuition next year.

The school announced this week that undergraduate tuition rate will be $64,896 starting in fall 2023 — an increase of nearly 4.9% from the current year.

Most room and board rates are also going up — between 4.5% and 9%.

All told, the overall cost of attendance, with room and board, is increasing roughly 4.8%, the school said in the announcement.

I think when they discussed loan forgiveness, they should have added tuition investigation with it. Maybe a cap on annual tuition?
