FY10 Statutory Tuition Revenue Projections • Different Rates for UG and GR; Resident and Non-resident Undergraduate, Resident Graduate, Resident Non-Resident $50 / Semester Credit Hour $100 / Semester Credit Hour Rate established by THECB average NR tuition of the 5 most populous states FY08 Rate: UG $328 / SCH FY09 Rate: UG $331 / SCH FY10 Rate: UG $327 / SCH GR $656 / SCH GR $662 / SCH GR $654 / SCH 1 Texas Public Education Grants • Mandatory financial aid ‘set-aside’ for Texas Public Education Grants (TPEG) per Ed Code 56.033(a)(2) – Funds for TPEG are netted from statutory tuition revenue: • 15% of Resident tuition • 3% of Non Resident tuition (can be reset each biennium by the legislature) 2 FY10 Statutory Tuition Revenue Projections • We are liable for the actual TPEG requirement by Ed Code based on census data not budget data: – Budgeted TPEG is adjusted for the: • Estimated Change in mix of ‘paying’ students: – UG/GR – Res/NR – Other legislative changes (e.g. set-aside rate) 3 FY10 Statutory Tuition Revenue Projections • Difficult to know with precision what future enrollment mix will be: – How many non-residents paying the out of state tuition rate? • Non-resident & international students appointed to a 20 hour per week TA/GA position pay in-state tuition rates • Graduate student taking undergraduate level courses, pay UG tuition rate – Over estimating non-resident tuition can have substantial financial impacts; for example, a shift of • 10 FTE UG NR students (30 SCH each) = $ 98,100 annualized (next year’s rate) • 10 FTE GR NR students (18 SCH each) = $117,720 annualized (next year’s rate) 4 Last Year at this time: • We were expecting a loss of student head count in FY09 due to admissions criteria – 800 students • FY09 tuition budgets were conservatively based on – 648,648 SCH – No change in mix of students 5 6 Projection is 0.2% SCH less than projected FY09, with a 5.5% decline for UG NR SCH (20 FTE UG) and 7% decline for GR NR SCH (10 FTE GR). 7 FY10 Designated Tuition Revenue Projections • Normally, easier to compute – Board approved rate times SCH – Summer is the trailing semester. – Predicting next year’s total SCH / Summer trailing semester • Legislature may change the FY10 Board approved rate • Rate Projection Scenarios: – – – – No rate increase Board Approved Rate 5% Designated Tuition Rate Cap 5% Total Academic Cost Cap 8 FY10 Designated Tuition Revenue Projections • FY10 SCH Basis: <0.2%> of projected FY09 or 670,450 SCH – 3.4% increase over FY09 budgeted SCH • Even the flat rate scenario will generate additional base budget given prior year conservative projections 9 Scenario 1: Designated Tuition Rate is flat. 10 Scenario 2: FY10 DT Rate is capped at 5% 11 Scenario 3: FY10 Total Academic Costs Capped at 5% but Designated Tuition Rate is Maximized 12 Scenario 4: Board of Regents’ Approved FY10 Designated Tuition Rate 13
