UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA
BOARD OF VISITORS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
BOARD MEETING:
April 23, 2014
COMMITTEE:
Finance
AGENDA ITEM:
Undergraduate Tuition, 2014-2015 Academic Year
and 2015 Summer Session
BACKGROUND: In February 2014, the Board of Visitors set all
2014-2015 tuition and fees rates for the Academic Division, with
the exception of undergraduate tuition rates for regular
session, the School of Continuing and Professional Studies
(SCPS), 2015 summer session, and study abroad. The Board will
consider these tuition rates at its April meeting, as well as
2014-2015 tuition and fees for the University of Virginia's
College at Wise.
DISCUSSION: For 2014-2015, the University has developed a
proposal that reflects an increase in undergraduate base tuition
that will help meet the costs of addressing competitive faculty
and staff salaries, as well as increases in health care and
state-required retirement costs. In addition, a portion of the
incremental tuition revenue will be available to invest in the
University’s Cornerstone Plan.
The proposal includes 2014-2015 tuition of $10,484 for a
Virginian undergraduate and of $38,988 for a non-Virginian
undergraduate. Combined with the fees previously approved by
the Board, 2014-2015 tuition and fees for a Virginian
undergraduate are $12,998, an increase of 4.3% or $540. 20142015 tuition and fees for a non-Virginian undergraduate are
$42,184, an increase of 5.9% or $2,340. The total price of
education (tuition, required fees, housing, dining, books,
travel, and other) for a Virginian first-year undergraduate
student will increase $949 to $27,417, an increase of 3.6% over
2013-2014. For a non-Virginian first-year undergraduate
student, the price of education will increase $2,730 to $57,836,
an increase of 5.0% over 2013-2014. The differential amounts
for the McIntire School of Commerce and the School of
Engineering and Applied Science remain at levels previously
approved by the Board of Visitors.
For 2014-2015, The University of Virginia's College at Wise
recommends a $359 (4.2%) increase in tuition and mandatory fees
to $8,868 for Virginians. The College further recommends a $937
1
(4.0%) increase in tuition and mandatory fees to $24,502 for
non-Virginians. This proposal comes with the endorsement of the
advisory board of the College, which met on March 21, 2014 to
consider the tuition and fees proposal.
ACTION REQUIRED: Approval by the Finance Committee and by the
Board of Visitors
