Austin Peay State University – Tennessee’s fastest-growing public university – has drastically reduced its out-of-state tuition.

Doctor Rex Gandy, APSU provost, recommended the 43.5 percent out-of-state tuition reduction as a way of improving diversity at the regional university.

“In many cases, our tuition rates are now below what universities in other states offer their own residents,” he said. “And students who choose to come here will find a thriving campus with a more than 200-year history.”

The hard work and commitment to academic excellence of the students named above have paid off, and APSU is excited they chose to “Be A Gov” for their higher education.
