New England College in Henniker says it has frozen tuition for the next academic year, keeping it at the 2022 level of $20,089 a semester for a bachelor’s degree.

As is the case at many colleges, many students at NEC pay far less than ful tuition due to grants and scholarships. NEC says on-campus are expected to pay a yearly average tuition of $12,500. That does not include room and board, which can add roughly $10,000 to the cost per semester depending on the type of housing.

The freeze applies to all of NEC’s on-campus and online students. An online bachelor’s degree costs $10,500 per year on average, the school said.

Community college transfer students are eligible for a flat tuition rate of $10,000 per year, as well as up to 90 transfer credits toward a New England College degree.
