THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success Proposed Outcomes-Based Funding Model for Public Universities Thursday, March 10, 2011 10:30 P.M.
THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success Model Mechanics – point calculations • The THECB recommendation for outcomes-based funding includes the same basic methodology already employed in the existing Performance Incentive funding model. • Points are based on degrees (Undergraduate) • Funding is split between the two point calculations • Biennial Increase/Decrease • Total Three-Year Average
THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success 10% of Formula = Student Success Metrics (Outcomes) ½allocated based on 3-year averages ½allocated based on 2-year over 2-year Increases Equation: Average of 2009 & 2010 Degrees MINUS Average of 2007 & 2008 Degrees Equation: SUM 2010, 2009, 2008 Degrees DIVIDED by 3
THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success Example of Outcomes Calculation Metric: Undergraduate Degrees Total Points = 150 + 267 = 417 • Each metric is calculated under the same methodology • Points are totaled to determine allocation of 10% of total funding • Outcomes funding accounts for 4-years of institutional data
THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success Points are calculated on 4 Factors • Total Undergraduate Degrees • Baccalaureate • Associates of Applied Science (AAS) • Undergraduate Critical Field Degrees • STEM • Nursing • Allied Health • Math and Science Teacher Certifications • At-Risk Degrees • SAT or ACT below average • Pell Grant recipient • Part-time student • Initially enrolled at 20 or older • High school equivalency certificate recipient in the last 6 years. • Above/Below Predicted Degrees • 4-Year Institutions • Upper-Level Institutions
THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success • Above/Below Predicted Degrees example formula Actual Grad Rate minus Predicted Grad Rate equals Difference times Cohort equals Above/Below Predicted 90% minus 80% equals 10% times 2,000 Students equals 200 Degrees Above
THECB Legislative Agenda: Aligning Funding with Student Success Predicted Graduation Rate • Multiple regression model • Dependent Variable = 6-year Graduation Rate • Independent Variables - 4-Year Institutions • Pell Recipients Top 10 Percent high school graduates • Independent Variables - Upper-Level Institutions • Pell Recipients Credits Attempted in the last two years
