Click on “open”. • The result is an Excel spreadsheet in csv format that you can format for your own use. • Remember to save file “AS AN EXCEL WORKBOOK”

  15. Let’s Be Proactive With Our ICP • Plan – Project – Forecast as best as possible before the Fiscal Year budget is loaded so your ICP can be fully budgeted. • New fees for new classes/Fees for classes established AFTER the Fiscal Year budget is loaded…Notify the Budget Office as soon as your fee has been approved. • The Budget Office does NOT see “Fee Sheets”

  16. What If I Collect More Fee Money Than Is Budgeted? • New fees that are approved during the fiscal year or fees that are already budgeted and are coming in higher than anticipated at the original budget adoption: • Prepare a supplemental budget request showing both the complete revenue and expenditure FOAPs, the dollar amounts, and an explanation (“This fee was approved by the Board on 12/15/11. It is for students to reimburse the college for art supplies”.) (“This fee is for art supplies and has been consistently coming in at $25,000 over the last 3 years. We request the budgeted revenues and expenses be increased to $25,000.) • This request may be completed via email to the Budget Office from your Executive Dean or Manager
