菲律宾高等教育委员会:能源危机期间不调涨学费

菲律宾高等教育委员会主席雪莉·阿格鲁皮斯(Shirley Agrupis)周二表示,受中东战争引发的能源危机影响,2026-2027学年高等院校将不会调涨学费。

在新闻发布会上,阿格鲁皮斯表示,高等教育委员会此前收到了许多关于调涨学费及其他费用的请求。“我们确实收到了很多(关于调涨学费及其他费用的)请求。但我们只有一个答复。虽然我们了解高等教育机构(HEI)日益增长的需求,但我们呼吁现在并非调涨学费的合适时机,”她说道。菲律宾总统马科斯已发布第110号行政命令,宣布国家进入“能源紧急状态”,并要求采取全政府共同应对的措施,以减轻受影响行业的负担。各高等教育机构对此决定表示理解,高等教育委员会计划与他们举行会议。根据《全民优质高等教育法》(第10931号共和国法案),公立大学和学院的学费与杂费协调工作已经完成,并已提交给预算与管理部。高等教育委员会授权采取灵活的学习方式,包括作为临时措施提供最多100%的线上课程,具体取决于各机构的能力。阿格鲁皮斯补充道:“我们衷心感谢各高等教育机构的领导者,因为他们确实响应了我们的号召,即由他们根据自身智慧判断大学的准备程度和能力,同时不牺牲我们期望实现的教育质量。”该备忘录旨在确保学术活动的连续性,并同时保障学生的福利。
