Objection to the Fielding Graduate Institute's Clinical Psychology Program Tuition Increase

"I strongly opposed a 10% tuition increased. Since my time at Fielding tuition keep increasing but no significant support to students and faculty is noted"

"I strongly urge the faculty to reconsider any increase in tuition. I am concerned that an increase may force me to drop out of the program, as I would not be able to pay back any additional money borrowed on my student loans. "

"n/a"

"while other institutions may be raising fees, this is not a parallel argument at Fielding. I am glad that our instructors will be seeing some of the money. I am certainly no genius at budgeting but clearly compared to what a student would receive at a bri"

"I strongly oppose the tuition increase and reduction in resources. The increase will create a hardship for me to complete the program. "

"this increase will be a hardship for me"

"n/a"

"I oppose the tuition increase, as well. Thank you."

"Fielding has drained me financially. I will be lucky to pay off my student loans before I retire. "

"It is true that travel to national sessions, lab materials, books, etc. take up all of the remaining money from our financial aid and we can't afford to give up more of it. I strongly oppose the raising of tuition."

"I join with other students and faculty to ask that the proposed tuition increase be reconsidered and reduced."

"I think the tuition hike is disproportionally high and is not fair for clinical psychology students. I also fear the loss in faculty/student resources could take away from the positive Fielding experience."

"n/a"

"I concur with above"

"I can't afford another tuition increase. I have 4 children - I do not want to continue paying my student loans when I am helping them with their tuition! "

"This tution increase should not apply to current students."

"N/A"

"Services from faculty and admin are already seriously compromised. "

"It makes it very stressful to students who do have to seek financial aid to complete our education when just tuition is so high. And as a student at fielding, there are other expenses we students have to take into consideration every year. National Sess"

"I do not feel the need to add comments to the petition"

"I have become increasingly frustrated with the lack of responsivity at several levels at Fielding. "

"Dr. Kuipers and Staff, If the 10% tuition increase goes into effect for the psych. program I will, literally, be priced out of graduating from Fielding. I reached the max allowable for student loans this year and may be forced to withdraw from Fieldin"

"Our tuition is already extremely high for the actual services we receive in this nonresidential program, and travel and materials place the burden of additional expenses on us. Enough."

"I am vehemently opposed to this unreasonable, unjustified, and unconscionable tuition increase and ask that it be reconsidered."
