Non-LDS students - Because a significant portion of the university's
operating costs are paid from the tithes of The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints, students who are tithe-paying members of the LDS
Church have already contributed to the operation of the university.
Non-LDS students, because they will not have made this contribution, are
charged a higher rate of tuition. The practice is similar in principle
to that of state universities that generally charge non-residents a
higher rate than residents.
