THE UWI, St Augustine, Guild of Students is condemning a move by the administration of the campus to implement a student fee increase, now deferred, without informing students in a timely manner.
In a release on Instagram on April 19, signed by president Vedanand Hargobin, the guild responded to an e-mail sent to students on April 14, which informed students that an approved tuition fee increase of 20 per cent which had been previously published, had been deferred for Semester 1 of the 2025/2026 academic year.
The e-mail continued, “This means that, for Semester 1, the approved increase in tuition fees at the St Augustine campus will not be implemented, and tuition fees will remain the same as last year's rates for all students (new and continuing).”
