Thanks!
agree Ruth Ramsey : I would definitely say "faster pace" rather than "higher pace". "Higher rate" is also an option.

accelerate

Despite economy, college costs may accelerate

at a rapid pace

Contextually, and as an economist would most likely write it.

"(With) the occurrence of what is termed as decreasing returns to scale, it is worth saying that (with) the increase in the volume of production it is possible that costs may grow at a rapid pace."
