Université du Québec system worried about tuition increases

A report from a committee of the Université du Québec released on 3 February 2012 expresses worry about the effects the $1625 tuition hike will have on its traditional clientele.

First generation students (those whose parents never attended university), students from low-income families, and non-traditional students, which are the students that the  Université du Québec  system was created to accommodate, are likely to be the most affected.
