increase by an average of .88% from the 2011-2012 rates.
Fifteen of the 90 properties will have increases ranging from
1.92% to 8.33%.
Blandy Farm operates two faculty and staff housing units.
Both properties are utilized and rents are in the process of
being moved towards market rates the first of which is the Green

A.2. STUDENT HOUSING RATES, 2012-2013:
student residences for 2012-2013
Approves rates for
For the current fiscal year (2011-2012), the average double
room rate at Virginia public colleges and universities is
$4,844. The comparable average at the University is $4,946.
The University of Virginia’s College at Wise charges an average
of $5,273.
The University proposes a $223 increase in the average
housing double room rate to $5,169 per nine-month academic year
for 2012-2013. This increase is approximately 4.5%. The
increase will cover rising operating costs including increases
in salaries and fringe benefits and a 4.3% increase in other
operating costs that include utilities, maintenance and other
operating costs. Debt expense will increase by $400,000 for
full-year charges for the two new Alderman Road residence halls
opened in fall 2011. The rate increase will also maintain
3
contributions to reserves to fund renovations and the
construction of new residence halls. Contributions to the
renovation and repair and expansion reserves of $12.6 million
represent approximately 1.52% of the replacement value of
facilities.
The University of Virginia’s College at Wise proposes a
$369 increase in the average housing room rate to $5,642 for
2012-2013. The proposed overall housing rates will increase by
approximately 7.0% to cover operating costs and reserve
contributions as proposed in the business plan developed in
support of the construction of the two residence halls opened in
2007 and 2010.
The proposed resolution also addresses summer 2013 housing
rates for the Mountain Lake Biological Station.

CONTRACT RATES FOR DINING SERVICES, 2012-2013:
contract rates for dining services for 2012-2013
Approves
The University of Virginia provides a variety of contract
meal plans for students, ranging from unlimited dining to a $200
dining spending account. Revenues received from contract
dining, retail operations, vending, concessions and catering
must cover all operating costs, including food, labor, capital
and indirect costs. The University contracts with ARAMARK for
dining services. The College at Wise contracts with Chartwells
for these services.
Proposed University meal plan rate increases for 2012-2013
range from zero to 4.5%, with an average increase of 3.7%. The
proposed rate increase is necessary to cover increases in
personnel service costs, food costs and other operating
expenses. Personnel services and food costs are expected to
increase 3.0%. Enhancing dining programs, including expanded
customer service initiatives and expanding and renovating the
Newcomb Hall facilities will contribute to increased operating
and capital costs. In 2011-2012, approximately 8,600 University
students purchased contract meal plans.
The College at Wise meal plan rate increases range from
4.8% to 5.1% and reflect increases in food and operating costs.
The University’s College at Wise serves approximately 810
students on contract meal plans.
The proposed resolution also addresses summer 2013 dining
rates for the Mountain Lake Biological Station.

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA
BOARD OF VISITORS AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
BOARD MEETING:
April 13, 2012
COMMITTEE:
Full Board
AGENDA ITEM:
II. Tuition and Required Fees, 2012-2013
Academic Year and 2013 Summer Session
BACKGROUND: Each Spring, the Board of Visitors sets tuition and
fees for the following year for the Academic Division and The
University of Virginia's College at Wise. The enabling
resolution covers academic year and summer session tuition rates
for undergraduate, graduate, first professional and continuing
education students, as well as required fees and activity fees.
The University is awaiting final action by the 2012 General
Assembly on the state budget for 2012-2014. As presented last
meeting, we are aware of the budget proposals of the Governor,
House and Senate. The tuition and fee recommendations to the
Board reflect our understanding of the range of potential
outcomes of the state budget process for the University.
The discussion at this meeting will focus on the balance of
the following strategic priorities and principles: a)
attracting, retaining and graduating high-quality, diverse
student body; b) ensuring resources sufficient to invest in
faculty and programs to achieve excellence in teaching,
research, service and patient care; and c) quality of student
body and academic program, cost (both in gross and net terms)
and access. Among the best measures of progress on these fronts
are the net price to families and the net revenue to the
institution from incremental tuition net of aid, as well as
measures such as yield and class composition.
DISCUSSION: The proposal includes 2012-2013 tuition and fees
for a Virginian undergraduate of $12,006, an increase of 3.7% or
$430. This is the smallest percentage increase since 2001-2002,
further demonstrating the University’s objective of access and
affordability. Under the proposal, the price of education
(tuition, required fees, housing and dining) for a Virginian
first-year undergraduate student will increase $813 or 3.9% over
2011-2012. The proposal also includes a component where thirdand fourth-year Virginians in the McIntire School of Commerce
pay $16,006 in tuition and fees, a 9.8% increase over the amount
paid by Virginian third-year students in the current year.
10
The proposal includes 2012-2013 tuition and fees for a nonVirginian undergraduate of $38,018, an increase of 4.0% or
$1,448. Under the proposal, the price of education (tuition,
required fees, housing and dining) for a non-Virginian firstyear undergraduate student will increase $1,831 or 4.0% over
2011-2012. The proposal also includes a component where thirdand fourth-year non-Virginians in the McIntire School of
Commerce pay $42,018 in tuition and fees, a 6.2% increase over
the amount paid by non-Virginian third-year students in the
current year.
The AccessUVa program, approved by the Board of Visitors in
February 2004, ensures that a University education remains
affordable for all students who qualify for admission,
regardless of their ability to pay. The University proposes to
set aside $1.8 million in incremental revenues for AccessUVa in
2012-2013, along with an additional $4.6 million in
institutional funds necessary to meet ongoing obligations funded
with one-time cash balances in the 2011-2012 approved budget.
The proposal includes an increase of $564 (or 3.7% for
Virginians) and $574 (or 2.3% for non-Virginians) in 2012-2013
tuition and fees for graduate students, excluding Engineering
graduate students and students enrolled in the Batten School’s
Master of Public Policy Post-Graduate Program. To reflect rates
that are competitive with similar programs, the tuition and fees
assessed to students enrolled in the Batten School’s Master of
Public Policy Post-Graduate Program will be set at $16,886 (an
11.8% increase) for Virginians and $28,186 (a 12.3% increase)
for non-Virginians. When this program was established, it was
expected that a higher, market-based tuition rate would
eventually be implemented. However, for the first several
years, it was prudent to build the program at the general
graduate rates. The increased revenues resulting from these
higher tuition rates, less a tax, will be returned to the Batten
School to cover program expenses, including faculty salaries,
graduate student services, costs of program delivery, career
services, leadership and graduate student professional
development.
The proposal sets the per credit hour tuition rate at $717
for Virginian graduate students and $1,235 for non-Virginians,
representing a $28 or 4.1% increase for Virginians and a $28 or
2.3% increase for non-Virginians. Research hours for nonEngineering graduate students will be charged at $62 per credit
hour. For Engineering graduate students, the University
proposes a higher per credit hour rate, $150 per credit hour, in
2012-2013 to reflect the considerable resources and faculty
11
effort expended for these students. Under this proposal,
tuition and fees assessed to full-time Engineering graduate
students will increase by $1,092 or 7.2% for residents and
$1,102 or 4.4% for non-residents. A non-Engineering student
enrolled full-time in a research-only program will pay a total
tuition and fee charge of $3,872, a 2.5% increase over last
year. An Engineering student enrolled full-time in a researchonly program will pay a total tuition and fee charge that
reflects the newly proposed $150 per credit hour rate, $5,984, a
58.5% increase over last year.
The proposal recommends no increase in tuition and fees for
the McIntire Master of Science in Accounting. For the McIntire
Master of Science in Commerce, the proposal includes an increase
in tuition and required fees of $970 or 2.5% for Virginians and
$1,130 or 2.6% for non-Virginians. The M.S. Commerce proposed
rates include a $7,750 International Study Fee, which is
unchanged from the current year. The proposal includes an
increase of $895 or 2.3% in 2012-2013 tuition and fees for the
McIntire Master of Science in Management of Information
Technology (MIT). The M.S. MIT proposed rates include a program
fee of $9,286 for residents and $9,168 for non-Virginians that
covers books, materials, software licenses, group meals and
lodging.
The proposal reflects a $1,813 increase (4.5%) in tuition
and fees for Virginian, fourth-year Medical School students and
a $2,267 increase (4.5%) in tuition and fees for non-Virginian,
fourth-year Medical School students. Consistent with the prior
year, first-, second-, and third-year Medical School students
will pay a higher tuition rate; these students will see a $1,881
(4.6%) increase in Virginian tuition and fees and a $2,313
(4.5%) increase in non-Virginian tuition and fees. This
proposal reflects the higher instructional cost associated with
recent curriculum changes and increased class size and is
appropriate for the Medical School’s current tuition and
indebtedness rankings among peers.
The proposal increases tuition and fees for the Darden
School full-time M.B.A. students by $1,900. This represents a
4.0% increase for Virginians and a 3.7% increase for nonVirginians. The proposal maintains a $5,000 differential
between Virginian and non-Virginian tuition and required fees
and will keep the Darden School rates comparable to peer
institutions. Incremental revenue generated will be used to
fund investments in faculty hires, student services, branding
and other essential program costs.
12
Tuition and fees for all students in the Darden School
M.B.A. for Executives (MBAE) program are proposed to increase by
$2,700 or 4.5%. Tuition and fees for all students in the Darden
School Global M.B.A. for Executives (GMBAE) program are proposed
to decrease by $2,300 or 3.3%; this decrease reflects Darden’s
goal to align tuition across the MBAE and GMBAE programs.
The proposal increases tuition and fees for J.D. and L.L.M.
Law School students by $1,800, representing a 4.0% increase for
in-state students and a 3.6% increase for out-of-state students.
The proposal maintains a $5,000 differential between in-state
and out-of-state tuition and fees and still positions the Law
School at the low end of comparable rates charged by peer
institutions. As the Law School increases in-state tuition, it
will increase its commitment to scholarships and loan
forgiveness at a percentage rate at least equal to the annual
increase in tuition and required fees. Incremental revenue
generated will be used to fund increases in financial aid,
utilities and facility maintenance, faculty and staff
compensation, electronic library resources and academic
programs.
The proposal includes various recommended increases for
other tuition and fees. These recommendations are based upon
market conditions and program needs for each individual program,
as well as progress towards aligning Summer Session, January
Term and School of Continuing and Professional Studies charges
with regular session tuition charges.
The proposal includes an increase of $48 in total mandatory
fees for regular session Virginias, representing a 2.1%
increase. Total mandatory fees for regular session nonVirginians are proposed to increase by $58 or 2.0% as a result
of an increase in the state imposed capital outlay and Equipment
Trust Fund fee paid by non-Virginian students and transferred to
the Commonwealth of Virginia. The proposal reflects a 5.9%
increase in the student health fee to cover increased general
and administrative costs and the strategic salary actions taken
in fall 2011 to increase physician and psychologist salaries; a
6.4% increase in the recreational facilities fee to replenish
repair/replacement reserve balances for the Aquatic & Fitness
Center and the North Grounds Recreation Center and to begin to
transition the balance of Intramural-Recreational Sports to
auxiliary status; and a 6.3% increase in the University transit
fee to augment the number of buses in the University Transit
System fleet to meet expected levels of service and accommodate
planned enrollment growth.
13
The proposal reflects the extension of the School of
Nursing’s clinical services fee (established last year for B.S.
in Nursing students) to the Clinical Nurse Leader program. The
clinical services fee established last year by the Medical
School is proposed to increase by $8 or 5.3% and covers such
costs as influenza vaccination, tuberculosis testing, CPR
training and mask fitting.
The proposal establishes a new clinical laboratory fee of
$60 per credit hour to be charged on all undergraduate and
graduate School of Nursing courses with a clinical component, in
both hospital and simulation clinical settings. The fee will
generate approximately $300,000, of which approximately twothirds (⅔) will directly support the School’s newly renovated
and upgraded Clinical Simulation Learning Center.
The proposal includes a new laboratory fee of $32 per
credit hour to be charged on all undergraduate School of
Engineering and Applied Science courses; due to the number of
embedded laboratory activities in standard courses, the proposal
does not call for limiting the assessment to specific lab
courses. The fee will generate just under $1.8 million, of
which approximately two-thirds (⅔) will directly support
updating technology in teaching laboratories.
As a result of Student Financial Services’ need to apply
financial aid to term fees that are evenly divisible by two, the
proposal includes a $1 increase in the following student
activity fees, which are currently odd numbers: undergraduate
Commerce (1.2% increase); Darden (1.8% increase), School of
Medicine (2.0% increase); and Batten (2.9% increase). The
proposal also includes an increase of $10 or 17% in the
undergraduate application fee.
For 2012-2013, The University of Virginia's College at Wise
recommends a $386 (5.0%) increase in tuition and mandatory fees
to $8,107 for Virginians. The College further recommends a
$1,139 (5.3%) increase in tuition and mandatory fees to $22,475
for non-Virginians. The proposed 5% increase in the auxiliary
fee arises from increasing operation and maintenance costs of
existing and new facilities and funding debt service.
