The entrance fee of a university in Hebei Province has increased by 5,000 yuan. Why did it go up so much at once?

The explanation given by the school is that prices have risen due to the epidemic. Is this reason understandable? Of course. After all, under the epidemic conditions, the prices of many items have gone up, and universities themselves are not production enterprises, even production enterprises are facing the problem of rising prices. It is also reasonable for colleges and universities to send a notice to inform students in advance so that they can prepare for the price changes after purchasing goods.

The school's second explanation is that it has added some new fees. These projects have been audited by the Provincial Department of Education and the Department of Finance, and there is no arbitrary charge. It is also possible. After all, the school is not a public welfare department and will not bear the corresponding tuition fees. After the increased fees are audited by the provincial offices, they will be sent to students in the form of notices to let them know. If students feel unreasonable, they can appeal to the administrative department. Of course, it will take some time.

Some netizens believe that schools now generally notify students by means of notification, so that problems encountered can be handled well. Some parents think that there are arbitrary charges in schools, so they can call or consult by other means to avoid misunderstanding. After all, children need to solve these problems in the bud if they want to go to school here.

Some netizens think that the school's practice is really inappropriate, because the price rises suddenly at the beginning of school, so what do students think? Is there a feeling that the store is bullying customers? Even after the approval of the ministries and agencies, the financial department put it on record. However, it is really not good to temporarily increase fees. Why didn't you temporarily reduce tuition fees?

There is indeed cost pressure and cost increase in running a school, but you won't know the cost increase until the school starts, right? This does have a bad influence on students and parents. Do you think it's good for universities to raise prices temporarily?
