| Summary: | In fiscal years 2014-15 and 2015-16, Colorado's public institutions witnessed the smallest year-over-year percent increases in tuition rates in more than a decade. This was largely the result of increases in General Fund support for higher education. In an attempt to maintain this progress, the General Assembly chose to hold the Department of Higher Education's appropriation flat in FY 2016-17 rather than proceed with the $20 million (3 percent) cut as originally requested in the Governor's budget request. Fiscal Year 2017-18 saw modest investment in higher education based on inflationary increase to the General Fund share of both Education and General expenses as well as inflationary increases to employee health benefit increases. In accordance with C.R.S. สน 23-1-105.5(2), this report provides detailed information on the tuition and fee rates that Colorado public institutions of higher education charged to resident and non-resident students in Fiscal Year 2016-17. The report is organized into the following sections: (1) Key Findings and Definitions; (2) The Process of Tuition Setting and its Relationship to Costs; (3) A Summary of Tuition and Fee Changes in the 2016-2017 Academic Year; and (4) Tuition and Fee Interstate Comparisons. The appendices provide detailed examples and comparisons across institution type, student groups, and year-to-year comparisons. [For the Fiscal Year 2016-17 report, see ED586444.] |
