Bundy Sees Substantial Tuition Hike Next Year

Harvard students can expect an increase in tuition next year, Dean Bundy said yesterday.

Revision of the present $1250 rate is now under consideration, the dean revealed. "I would be very surprised if it turned out without any increase," he said.

Although declining to speculate how large the rise might be, Bundy noted it would have to be "substantial enough" to justify the costs of implementing the change. The last increase, in 1958, was $250. And in 1956, tuition rose $200.

Radcliffe will consider changing its tuition if Harvard decides to raise its price, President. Mary I. Bunting said last night. No change is currently under consideration, she said, and expressed surprise at the Harvard plans. Although changes in Radcliffe tuition have been announced at the same time as Harvard's in past years, the decisions are made independently.

Dean Bundy said announcement of any change will come before vacation "as a Christmas present..."
