FY12 Tuition Projections • Tuition charged by Texas public universities is a combination of two charges: • Statutory Tuition • Designated Tuition
FY12 Statutory Tuition Statutory Tuition is referred to as General Revenue Dedicated (GR-D) and a source of state funding for the formula. 2
FY12 Statutory Tuition Rates • Texas Education Code § 54.051 establishes rates for UG/GR and Resident/Non-Resident • Resident Statutory tuition rates: Undergraduate, Resident $50 / Semester Credit Hour Graduate, Resident $100 / Semester Credit Hour
FY12 Statutory Tuition Rates • Non-Resident rate established by THECB based on the average NR tuition of the 5 most populous states (public universities): FY10 Rate: UG $327 / SCH GR $654 / SCH FY11 Rate: UG $360 / SCH GR $720 / SCH (+10%) FY12 Rate: UG $363 / SCH GR $726 / SCH (+0.8%)
FY12 Non-Resident Rate Calculation Nonresident (public university) tuition & fees in the 5 most populous states: UTSA UG NR Tuition (30 Hrs) Statutory $ 10,890 Designated 4,283 Mandatory Fees 2,500 Total $17,673
Texas Public Education Grants (TPEG) Mandatory financial aid program per Ed Code 56.033(a)(2) funded by statutory tuition: 15% of Resident tuition 3% of Non Resident tuition TPEG budget is set using target enrollments: Using actual enrollment census data for each semester, TPEG allocations are adjusted as necessary. 6
Establishing FY12 Enrollment Targets How many non-residents will actually pay 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 students taking undergraduate level courses, pay UG tuition rate Overestimating has a substantial financial impact: 10 FTE UG NR students (30 SCH each) = $108,900 annualized 10 FTE GR NR students (18 SCH each) = $130,680 annualized 9
Establishing FY12 Enrollment Targets Other factors impossible to predict with absolute certainty that impact tuition revenue projections: Continued increase in the number of military and family qualifying for Hazelwood exemptions Availability of financial aid Changes in admissions criteria Summer as the trailing semester 10

Difference between Projected FY11 & Recommended FY12 Statutory Tuition Budget 12
FY12 Statutory Tuition Projection Technically, this amount must be made up as a funding source for the formula – difference between HB1 & CY GAA. This amount is built into our CY base budget – meaning we have already “spent” it. 13
Statutory Tuition During the budget planning process we consider only the net change in GR (and the actual change in GR-D from one operating budget to the next.) 14
Recommended FY12 Designated Tuition Revenue Budget FY12 SCH Basis 10,000 SCH increase or 1.5% over FY11 budget target (695,000 versus 685,000 SCH) Gross Increment due to rate change = $7,535,000 Gross Increment due to enrollment growth = 1,427,500 $ 8,962,500 15
FY12 Designated Tuition Revenue Budget SCH BasisRate FY 12 695,000 * $142.75 = $ 99,211,250 FY 11 685,000 * $131.75 = $ 90,248,750 Change $ 8,962,500 Financial Aid Set Aside - 1,571,302 Net Designated Tuition Increase $7,391,198 Given uncertainty with financial aid & potential impacts on enrollment, a portion of the projected increase should be allocated to reserves; if achieved funds can be made available for one time, institutional needs. 16
FY12 Mandatory Fee Projections • Rates approved for increase: • Athletics (+ 13%; $2/semester credit hour) • Minimum rate = $17/SCH • Max payment = $17*12 SCH, or $204/semester • Medical Services Fee (+ 4%; $1.25/student/semester) • Flat rate – all students pay $32.70 per semester
