The prospectus should include information about approximate additional costs that a student should expect to incur throughout their time as a student, allowing them to plan and budget effectively. This should be based on information from current students. That MMU further develop this report by conducting and publishing a full, detailed audit of all Hidden Fees. This should be accompanied by a set of Faculty action plans detailing the process by which the fees will be eliminated. The delivery of these action plans should be monitored by the appropriate committee. Student Satisfaction: Student Satisfaction: Recommendations
