What this page REALLY needs, is to cite some sources! "Students have private tuition to improve grades"??? Are you serious? MC Dupree ( talk) 03:19, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
This page needs a discussion of historical trends.
U.S. college tuition increases have caused chronic controversy since shortly after World War II. Other industrialized countries whose national governments support higher education have more moderate patterns of change in college tuitions and lower levels of controversy.
Who cares about Canadian tuition? 172.191.42.179 21:40, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
CFS (Canadian federation of students) cares with their annual tuition protests. 99.230.45.10 ( talk) 02:00, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
Uhhm I think the sentence "Developed countries have adopted a dual scheme for education: while basic (i.e. high-school) education is supported by taxes rather than tuition, higher education is usually given for a fee or tuition." is kindof US specific. Almost all European countries have free tertiary education (with the exception of the UK) for it's citizens. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.25.153.16 ( talk) 07:34, 30 December 2008 (UTC) taylor washington
Hold on a sec. "Tuition" is the process of teaching or training someone. "Tuition Fees" are the costs associated with "tuition". If you're too lazy to use the second word, it doesn't remove the distinction between the two. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.16.190.232 ( talk) 18:54, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
It would be useful to have a list of typical tuition fees here. -- Petteri Aimonen ( talk) 18:42, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: paqe moved to Tuition payments. No point in moving Tuition fees - it's only a redirect to Tuition fees (UK) anyway (due to a move on the 5th Dec). Start an RM at Tuition fees (UK) if you want to change it to Tuition fees in the United Kingdom Ronhjones (Talk) 02:21, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Tuition fees
Tuition payments or
Tuition charges — Relisted. While there is consensus for a rename, there is still the question of what to move the article to.
Vegaswikian (
talk) 03:58, 25 November 2010 (UTC) So The article
Tuition is the article that is about the concept of tuition fees in a global sense, describing the history of tuition fees around the world. "
Tuition fee" currently redirects to
Tuition. The article
Tuition fees, by contrast, is solely about higher education fees in the UK. This seems to be something of a
WP:ENGVAR issue, as the term "tuition" apparently refers to fees in the US, but this is extremely confusing as, in the UK, "tuition" only refers to teaching itself. I would suggest making
Tuition a disambiguation page, with links to
Education and this page, renamed as "Tuition fees". I hope that makes sense.

This seems to be a bit WP:UNDUE, not to say WP:OR. Why do we need such a long explanation for the slight variations on linguistic usage (this is not a dictionary of etymology)? Why isn't it sourced? -- John ( talk) 21:46, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
What is this article about? -- John ( talk) 04:26, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
Anything related to Greece is completely wrong. User who has written all these things added a personal view.
For example, Greece has a huge percentage of students in university. In addition, no student is excluded after any number of exams. This is a myth which is wrong. Furthermore, chance of failure in exams is not high. Because failure is relative. If you target courses with high demand being accepted is difficult. Low demand courses are much easier to be achieved. Skapis9999 ( talk) 00:47, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
While this article is called "Tuition payments", it seems to only be about university tuition. What about fees for primary and secondary education? My search from "school fees" redirected here, but the article doesn't provide any information that I was actually looking for. Tad Lincoln ( talk) 15:41, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
