Superior Court Judge John Munter ruled March 10 that the University of California must pay about $38 million in refunds and interest to professional school students whose fees were unduly raised by the university.

The ruling was a victory for current and former students in UC law, business, medical, dentistry, nursing and dental programs who filed suit in 2005 alleging that the university raised professional school fees despite longtime university policy stating fee levels would remain at the same level as when a student first enrolled.
