tuition fees

Academic enrollment costs

Tuition fees are the charges students pay for instruction at a school, college, or university.

The term is more common in British English; Americans typically say just tuition.

Tuition fees vary widely—from nominal amounts at subsidized public institutions to substantial sums at private universities.

Rising tuition fees have made student debt a major political issue.
