four-year and two-year colleges often respond to cuts in state funding by raising tuition; one result is a greater financial burden on students and their families.
tuition, one tuition one tuition, however, one no errors
The original statement uses a semicolon to correctly connect two independent clauses that are closely related in meaning. The proposed alternatives either use incorrect punctuation (removing the comma after "tuition" creates a run-on issue) or add an unnecessary contrasting conjunction ("however") that does not fit the logical flow of the sentence, which is showing a direct result, not a contrast.
