CUNY RUINS THE EXPECTATIONS OF SENIOR CITIZEN WHO WANTS TO GET A COLLEGE DEGREE.
SENIOR CITIZENS:
• Senior citizens used to pay a flat fee of $80 to take classes. In 2013, CUNY changed this rule and raised the tuition for senior citizens.
• The cost of living is expensive for senior citizens on a fixed salary income.
• Senior citizens on a fixed income cannot afford a regular enrollment of a university education as other students.
CUNY INCREASES SENIOR CITIZENS’ TUITION:
• By raising the tuition for senior citizens CUNY is creating an economic barrier between senior citizens and their education,
• We deserve the respect and opportunity of pursuing studies in higher education at a limited cost as we had early in CUNY.
WHY ARE SENIOR CITIZEN STUDENTS BEING TREATED UNFAIRLY BY THE CUNY SYSTEM?
You have the power to create change.
