Albany Law School of Union University, in a nod to the current recession, is freezing its tuition for the 2009-10 school year.
“My feeling right now is this is the rainy day everybody saves for,” said Thomas F. Guernsey, president and dean of Albany Law School, in Albany, N.Y. In “these particularly uncertain times, we want to do what we can to make it easier for students who are the ones who are incurring all this debt.” Albany Law School’s current annual tuition is $38,900. The school also plans to increase scholarships for the upcoming year from its current annual level of $4.3 million.
