The cost of a semester’s tuition at a certain university
is based on the number of courses in which a student
enrolls that semester. Although the cost per course at
that university has not risen in four years, many of its
students who could afford the tuition when they first
enrolled now claim they can no longer afford it.
Each of the following, if true, helps to resolve the
apparent discrepancy above EXCEPT:
(A) Faculty salaries at the university have risen
slightly over the past four years.
(B) The number of courses per semester for which
full-time students are required to enroll is
higher this year than any time in the past.
(C) The cost of living in the vicinity of the
university has risen over the last two years.
(D) The university awards new students a large
number of scholarships that are renewed each
year for the students who maintain high grade
averages.
(E) The university has turned many of its part-time
office jobs, for which students had generally
been hired, into full-time, nonstudent positions.

How could A be true? Do we have any better option to chose here? I need an Expert contribution please.
