PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — South Dakota lawmakers say there likely won’t be funding this year for a tuition freeze for in-state college students because of a recent reduced revenue projections for the state.

A joint legislative committee killed a bill Thursday that would have frozen tuition at four-year and technical schools in the state. An original version of the bill had estimated the cost of freezing tuition at nearly $3.2 million but the latest version didn’t have a price tag.

Republican Sen. Larry Tidemann says there’s a small chance there could be money left over after budget negotiations are finished but says it’s unlikely. Any last-minute additions would be added on Friday.

South Dakota State University student Olivia Siglin says she knows funding is tight but is hoping something comes together.
