Requested Reclassifications to Budget

Items that Higher Education requests be reclassified to the base budgets of the institutions.

West Virginia State University Land Grant - $1,200,000 Not included in Governor’s budget

Eastern Medical/Health Sciences - $1,400,000 Included in Special Projects in Governor’s budget at a reduced amount

Fairmont State University - $501,808 Included in Special Projects in Governor’s budget at a reduced amount

Technical Preparation Shepherd University - $200,000 Southern West Virginia Community & Technical College - $300,000 Both are included in Education and Arts budget at a reduced amount

11

Requested Reclassifications to Budget – cont’d

The funding for Eastern Medical/Health Sciences and Fairmont State University has been included in the lottery account as special projects for the last several years. The Technical Preparation funding for Shepherd University and Southern West Virginia Community & Technical College has been ongoing for a number of years and is funded in the budget of the Secretary of Education and the Arts.

The request for the West Virginia State University Land Grant is to obtain funding in order that federal matching funds will be received. Without this funding, West Virginia State University will lose a substantial amount of funding. This university is only one of two institutions in the state with land grant status. Only $1.2 million was appropriated in a supplemental bill for FY 03, but representatives from the college have indicated in order to avoid losing federal matching dollars that state funds of $1.5 million is needed. This is not included in the Governor’s budget for FY 2005.

Loss of key faculty and staff members due to the lack of salary increases and competitive pay issues.

Further reduction of full-time faculty members and expanded use of part-time adjuncts and graduate assistants.

Inability to offer adequate course offerings potentially resulting in a delay in graduation for students.

Increased class sizes with a potential impact on the quality of the learning experience. Larger than normal increases in tuition rates resulting in potential access issues for need based

resident students. Reduced ability of the institutions to meet work-force development and adult education outreach

goals. Inability of the institutions to meet the objectives for higher education that were laid out in SB

653 and SB 703, i.e., workforce preparation, general educational attainment, and economic development goals.

Negative long-term impact on the economic development goals that were to be supported by Higher Education.

Higher Education Grant Program Budget Request

The West Virginia Higher Education Grant Program currently receives a state appropriation from lottery funds of $18,000,000 which is supplemented by an allocation from HERF fees (paid by public college and university students) of $1,800,000 and a federal matching grant of approximately $1,000,000. It is estimated that this will provide assistance to approximately 11,800 West Virginia students who will meet established standards of financial need and academic preparation in Fiscal Year 2003-04. Some 637 fully qualified students have not currently been assisted due to funding limitations.

Fiscal Year 2002-2003 was the first year since the mid 1990’s that the Grant Program did not receive a funding increase. Level funding combined with larger awards resulting primarily from tuition and fee increases caused the number of recipients to decline for this year. An increase of $6,000,000 is requested for Fiscal Year 2004-2005 with the funds to be used as follows:

An additional $1.7 million is needed to cover eligible students who are on the most recent award cycle waiting list at 70% of tuition and fee increases or cost adjustments.

An additional $2.3 million is needed to fund the fee increases for the Grant Program since its base funding level became $18 million in FY 2002. For fiscal year 2004, the four year institutions increased fees by approximately 9%, the two year component community colleges increased fees by approximately 4.5%, and the freestanding community colleges went to 0% with the roll backs in tuition. No final decision has been made yet, in regard to the projected FY 2005 tuition increases.

The remaining $2.0 million of the requested increase would be used for the thirteen newly eligible accredited proprietary institutions and is based on anticipated growth. This represents a change from last year because the proprietary institutions only became eligible with the passage of SB 646 during the last Regular Legislative Session.

State-Wide Scholarship and Grant Program Increases – cont’d

Note: There has been recent discussion regarding the possible merits of making the West Virginia Higher Education Grant Program more like the federal Pell Grant Program in terms of academic eligibility standards. This could result in more eligible students and perhaps a higher funding need, or as an alternative a lower Expected Family Contribution (EFC) cutoff for an expanded pool of Grant Program applicants.

Higher Education Adult Part-Time Student Grant Program -(HEAPS)

Budget Request The Higher Education Adult Part-time Student Grant Program is designed to enable needy West Virginia undergraduate

students to continue their education on a part-time basis at the post secondary level. HEAPS grants will be awarded for enrollment in public and private colleges and universities, adult technical preparatory programs or training offered by certain public vocational schools and any approved distance education, including worldwide web-based courses.

During the 2003 regular Legislative Session House Bill 2051 was passed and provides that qualified traditional college age students may now be considered for HEAPS grant assistance. Prior to the passage of this bill, there was a requirement that students be out of high school for at least two years before receiving assistance. Other changes to HEAPS include a new component of the program that requires 10 percent of the annual appropriations be directed to community and technical colleges for non-credit and customized training programs which further the economic development goals of the state and help meet training and skill upgrade needs of employers in the state.

An emergency rule has been adopted so that the provisions of the new bill can be implemented for awards being made in the 2003-04 award year. An appropriation of $8,000,000 is being requested for FY 2004-05, an increase of $4,000,000 over the FY 2004 level to expand this important program for the state. This amount is contingent upon fall enrollment but could be higher since part-time and community college student enrollment cannot be anticipated until the first few weeks of the semester.

Fiscal year 2005 will be the fourth year for the Promise Scholarship Program and it will be increased from $17,000,000 in FY 2004 to $27,000,000 as provided in the funding legislation. This amount is specified in West Virginia State Code Section 29-22-18a (c) and is the final year of scheduled funding increases. It is estimated in FY 2004 and FY 2005 that 6,000 and 8,000 students will receive awards, respectively.

Due to budgetary issues, the tuition increases for the Fall of 2002 and 2003 have averaged over 9% at the four-year campuses. For the ten year period of 1993-2003, tuition increases averaged 6.50% for in-state resident students at the state colleges and 7.42% for the universities. Similar larger than normal tuition increases would be required for the Fall of 2005 if the proposed budget reductions are implemented. Tuition and fees rose 14.1% in the fall of 2003 for all national four-year public institutions according to data from the College Board. Tuition at four-year colleges in West Virginia remains well below the national median at 66.0%. Tuition and fees as a percentage of family income are comparable to national averages at the four-year level

Tuition and fees at WV free-standing community colleges was relatively unchanged in 2003. Tuition and fees rose 13.8% in the fall of 2003 for all national two-year public institutions according to data from the College Board. Tuition at WV two-year free-standing colleges was 90.4% of the national median. Tuition and fees as a percentage of family income remain above the national averages at the community college level. While progress has been made on lowering the differences in component community college rates, there is still room for improvement in minimizing these differences.

Due to the low per capita income of West Virginia residents, these tuition increases may have an impact on college participation rates. Improved funding will allow the institutions to maintain access and affordability for the residents of the state, a key for improved state economic conditions.

As a result of the required larger than normal tuition increases as described above, it is also a priority of the Policy Commission that funding for need-based financial aid also be increased to provide continued opportunities for WV residents to attend the higher education institutions. In addition, legislative changes revising the eligibility for the Higher Education Adult Part-time Student Grant Program (HEAPS) and the Higher Education State Grant Program will also require additional funding in order to meet the legislative intent of these changes.

Other Pending Issues

Support is needed for implementing last year’s operational efficiency changes that were enacted in HB 2224. While Auditor Gainer and his staff have been extremely helpful in implementing these changes, resistance to change in other areas of state government has made the implementation of a portion of these legislatively mandated changes difficult this year.

The Governor has submitted a new bill this year to address efficiencies and flexibility within higher education. Recommendations included by the Governor address the areas of procurement, processing of financial transactions, revenue collection and expenditures, and human resource matters.

34

Other Pending Issues – cont’d

Support is also requested for our on-going request to simplify the state accounts required for tuition and fees. The Governor has submitted legislation on this matter which would greatly reduce the number of state accounts required to segregate tuition and fee collections, and would significantly streamline the business operations of the institutions.

In addition to the tuition and fee simplification, legislation has been requested that would provide for a pilot program for the establishment of per credit hour tuition and fees at up to three institutions to be approved by the Policy Commission.

35

Bond Issue

Higher Education would like to move forward with a new bond program to fund critical capital projects and deferred maintenance at the institutions, with funding for the bonds to come from the revenues appropriated in the Higher Education Improvement Fund. A listing of projects was last approved by the Policy Commission in June 2003. Due to changing circumstances, a small number of potential changes to the project list have been identified but a final recommendation has not yet been developed pending further discussion. Your support of this new bond issue for these crucial improvement projects will be greatly appreciated.

Recently the Policy Commission refinanced the 1992 System Debt which will result in savings for both the former college system and university system to be realized over the remaining nine year term of the bonds.

Funding for Institutions & Community College Components

The funding for the four year and community college components is being reviewed to see if a funding reallocation is necessary among the components. The original establishment of base budget appropriation allocations between the four-

year and community college components was based upon 1999 total enrollment data. Since that time, enrollment data has shifted significantly, and a more appropriate

allocation should exclude non-resident FTE enrollment. During FY 2003, significant progress has been made on developing an allocation model

for services that are provided between the component institutions, however more refinement of this process is required.

Pending policy issues include: Should appropriations between component entities be revised periodically based upon

enrollment changes? Should FTE enrollment be funded at a different level for component community college

students as compared to students enrolled in four-year programs? To what degree should cost allocation amounts and methodologies be allowed to vary based

upon individual institutional differences?
