[Vision2020] University to charge 2.5 percent fee to credit cards charges

[Donovan Arnold]

 "Due to skyrocketing credit card use among students
for student fees, room and board and tuition costs,
the University of Idaho Student Accounts and Cashiers
Office has added a 2.5 percent fee to all payments
made with credit cards. . ."

When is the University Administration going to
understand that when they raise prices it does not
equal more money if the students leave? UI has lost
over 200 undergraduate students in the last year with
all of the "hidden fees" they keep adding on. 2.5% may
not sound like a great deal, but when a student pays
all their room and board costs on a credit card with a
10%+ interest rate that is a HUGE increase on a tight
budget.
