2003-04 Washington State Tuition and Fee Report Executive Summary Background State law directs the Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB) to recommend state tuition and fee policies to the Governor and Legislature. As part of its analysis, Board staff conducts an annual survey of tuition and fee rates at public colleges and universities in all 50 states to determine how Washington State tuition and fees compare both nationally and with other Western states. In addition, staff examines how tuition and fees at individual Washington institutions contrast with tuition and fees charged by comparable institutions nationwide. These comparable institutions are referred to as “peer” institutions throughout this report. The following are key findings from this year’s tuition and fee report. Key Findings Nationally, tuition increased more than at any time in the last decade – 11.2 percent for research institutions, 11.6 percent for comprehensive institutions, and 9.9 percent for community colleges. It was the second year in a row that tuition increased over 10 percent for the four-year colleges and universities.

• Washington resident undergraduates pay somewhat less than the national average for tuition at the four-year institutions.

o The University of Washington (UW) and Washington State University (WSU) are below the national average by 7 percent.

o Washington comprehensive institutions are within 11 percent of the national average.

• At the community colleges, Washington residents pay a little less than the national average. o Washington community colleges are slightly below the national average ($13).

Page 4: Washington State Tuition and Fee Report• Significant spikes in tuition have occurred in every recession since the 1970s, and the cycle appears to be repeating. • Over the last

• The differences between Washington and “average” tuition and fee rates are more pronounced among comparable (peer) institutions.

o UW and WSU are below their peer averages by 17 percent and 10 percent respectively for resident undergraduate tuition and fees.

• Resident undergraduate tuition and fee rates in Washington are higher than in most Western

states. o UW and WSU are the third highest among the Western (WICHE) states for resident

undergraduate tuition and fees. Washington comprehensives and the community colleges rank fourth and sixth respectively among the Western states.

• Washington’s rank in tuition levels among states and peers has remained steady. For

example, UW nationally ranked 23rd in 2000 and ranks 25th today. o Washington comprehensive institutions ranked 25th in 2000 and rank 28th today,

while the community colleges ranked 23rd in 2000 and rank 22nd today.

• Significant spikes in tuition have occurred in every recession since the 1970s, and the cycle appears to be repeating.

• Over the last 10 years, tuition and fees have increased 92 percent at the University of Washington. The national average of tuition and fees has increased 84 percent over the same period.

Washington’s Tuition and Fee Increases Over Time The 2003-04 tuition and fee increase at Washington public institutions was considerably less than the increase of the previous year. In 2002-03, tuition increases were 14.6 percent, 13 percent, and 13.7 percent for research institutions, comprehensive institutions, and community colleges, respectively. This year, the increases were 6.5 percent, 6.6 percent, and 8.1 percent for the same groups. Nationally, in 2003-04, the average tuition increased about 11 percent for four-year institutions and 10 percent for community colleges. It was the second year in a row that the average tuition increase exceeded 10 percent nationally and was the greatest increase since 1991-92. The reported tuition amounts for Washington institutions, as well as nationally, reflect total tuition and required fees at the institutions. In Washington, because required fees may increase at rates less than those authorized by the Legislature, these percentages vary from the authorized amount. In the community college system, tuition is now based on a per-credit hour charge. The percentage reported in this publication reflects the tuition and fee amount paid by a student taking 15 credit hours. In all sectors – research, comprehensive and community colleges – tuition (operating and building fee) increased at the maximum legislatively authorized amount: 7 percent. For community colleges, the average tuition increased by the authorized 7 percent. During the last decade, the increase in Washington resident undergraduate tuition and fees has outpaced both Washington per capita personal income (PCPI) and inflation. Since 1993-94, tuition and fees have increased 92 percent at the University of Washington (for resident undergraduates), while the PCPI has increased 52 percent. The growth in the rate of inflation (20 percent) continues to lag behind both tuition and the PCPI.

2003-04 Washington State Tuition and Fee Report Chapter 1: 2003-04 Washington State Tuition and Fees

As part of its yearly analysis of tuition and fees, the Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB) staff conducts an annual survey of tuition and fee rates at public colleges and universities in all 50 states to determine how Washington State tuition and fees compare both nationally and with other Western states. In addition, staff examines how tuition and fees at individual Washington institutions compare with tuition and fees charged by their respective “peer” institutions. In 1988, a joint legislative and executive study group, in consultation with the HECB, adopted a national comparison “peer” group for each of the following: (1) the University of Washington (flagship); (2) Washington State University; (3) comprehensive institutions – which include Central, Eastern and Western Washington Universities; (4) The Evergreen State College; and (5) the Washington community college system. For a more detailed description of the peer group selection, see page 14. Undergraduate tuition and fees for comprehensive institutions are based on data from 214 public colleges and universities. Graduate tuition and fees are based on data from the same group of public colleges and universities, although not all offer graduate programs. Required fees are fees paid by all full-time students and do not include any optional fees, such as parking or health care, unless they are paid by all full-time students. Following is a summary of how 2003-04 tuition and fees at Washington colleges and universities compare with all 50 states, with other Western states, and with peer institutions. National Comparison To better understand how Washington tuition and fee rates compare nationally, HECB staff looked at three categories: (1) flagship universities; (2) comprehensive colleges and state universities; and (3) community colleges. The following summary tables provide an overview of the relationship of tuition and fee rates at Washington colleges and universities to national averages. Tables also graph this year’s percentage increases in resident undergraduate tuition and fee rates for each state.

2003-04 Washington State Tuition and Fee Report Page 2

For more detailed analysis by category and a national perspective over the last five years, see the tables in Section IV (National Tables 1-10). Tables 1 through 4 represent tuition and fee rates at the public flagship university in each state. Tables 5 through 8 represent the average tuition and fees for a selected set of comprehensive colleges and universities in all 50 states. Washington institutions represented in this sector include Central Washington University, Eastern Washington University and Western Washington University. (The Evergreen State College is compared with its own set of peer institutions in Peer Tables 17 through 20. It is presented in the following table for comparison to the comprehensive peer group). The comprehensive colleges and universities peer group, created in 1969, is composed of 214 institutions reporting undergraduate tuition and fees and 192 of those reporting graduate tuition and fees. Although not all public institutions are included in this survey, the averages and changes over time with the same set of institutions offer consistency, while the large number of institutions provides a close approximation of state averages. Tables 9 and 10 display state averages for community colleges.

Note: The Governor and 2003 Legislature authorized tuition increases of up to 7 percent for all resident undergraduate students. Governing boards and the State Board for Community and Technical Colleges were given the authority to set tuition rates for all students other than resident undergraduate. The percentage increase in the table above reflects the actual annual increase in total tuition and fees (building, operating, services and activities fees, and technology). Services and activities fees and technology fees may not always increase at the same rate as “tuition,” i.e., operating and building fee. See “Washington’s Tuition and Fee Structure” (page 18) for a more complete description.

Western States Comparison HECB staff compared tuition and fees at Washington public colleges and universities with those at public colleges and universities in 14 other Western states. Like Washington, these states are members of the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE). They include Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. The summary table and graph that follow compare Washington tuition and fee rates with those of other WICHE states. Please note that the comprehensive institutions include Central, Eastern and Western Washington Universities. The Evergreen State College (TESC) is represented within its own peer group and, consequently, is represented in the Peer Institution Comparison section. TESC is presented separately in the graph on the following page. For more detailed analysis, see the tables in Section IV of this report (WICHE States Tables 1-10). Tables 1 through 8 display historical and current tuition and required fee rates for full-time undergraduate and graduate students at public four-year colleges and universities in the Western states. Tables 9 and 10 display the average tuition and fee rates for community colleges in each Western state.

Peer Institution Comparison In 1988, the HECB undertook a study to develop peer groups reflecting a national perspective. Concurrently, a special joint legislative and executive study group was appointed to review the higher education master plan funding recommendations, with peer comparison groups identified as one of its areas of study. The joint study group and the HECB worked together and adopted the following peer policies: 1. The Carnegie Commission's classification of institutions is used as the basis for

selecting comparison groups for Washington institutions of higher education. 2. The national comparison group for the University of Washington is all public

institutions in the Carnegie classification Research Universities Category I with medical schools. These institutions typically offer a wide range of baccalaureate programs and are committed to graduate education through the doctorate level.

3. The national comparison group for Washington State University is all public land

grant universities in the Carnegie classification Research Universities Categories I and II with veterinary schools. Research Category II differ from Category I by the fewer number of doctoral degrees offered.

2003-04 Washington State Tuition and Fee Report Page 15

4. The national comparison group for Central, Eastern, and Western Washington Universities is all public institutions in the Carnegie classification Comprehensive Colleges and Universities Category I. These institutions typically offer a wide range of baccalaureate programs and are committed to graduate education through the master’s degree.

5. The national comparison group for the Washington community college system is all

state community college systems. In 1990, the HECB adopted a peer group for The Evergreen State College using the Carnegie Commission classification of institutions. The Board screened a composite category of public institutions in the Comprehensive I and Liberal Arts II classification. (Institutions in the Liberal Arts II classification are primarily undergraduate colleges with major emphasis on baccalaureate programs.) The selected peer institutions were also based on size, similarities of degrees awarded, and other characteristics common to The Evergreen State College. The summary table on the following page shows tuition and fee rates at Washington public colleges and universities compared to those of their respective peer groups. For more detailed analysis, see the tables in Section IV of this report. Peer Tables 1 through 20 display peer groups for the University of Washington, Washington State University and The Evergreen State College. Peer groups for Washington comprehensive institutions, with the exception of The Evergreen State College, are represented in National Tables 5 through 8. Washington community colleges are represented in National Tables 9 and 10. Also included in the peer comparison section (Peer Tables 9 through 16) are tuition and fee data for the University of Washington’s professional programs of medical, dental, and law. Tables 15 and 16 display veterinary medicine tuition and fee rates for Washington State University and its national peer group.

Chapter 2: Washington’s Tuition and Fee Structure

Components of Tuition and Fees Often the phrase “tuition and fees” is used to refer to the charges that all students pay to attend a college or university. At Washington colleges and universities, tuition and fees include operating fees, building fees, services and activities fees, and technology fees. The actual "tuition" portion, as outlined in statute, includes operating fees and building fees. Operating Fee The operating fee represents 80 to 95 percent of tuition and fees and primarily funds the institution’s instructional activities. Building Fee The building fee, which comprises 3 to 10 percent of tuition and fees, is used to fund building projects and retire bonds. Previously, the building fee portion of tuition was a fixed dollar amount set in statute. While operating fees increased, the building fee did not. Legislative changes in 1993 provided for increases in the amount of tuition dedicated to building fees. In 1995-96, the building fee became a percentage of total tuition and fees, rather than a fixed amount and, consequently, increased as overall tuition increased.1 Services and Activities Fee The services and activities fee (S&A), which represents 2 to 12 percent of tuition and fees, funds non-instructional student activities and programs, including some bond repayments for student-support facilities. S&A fees may increase each year if the services and activities fee committee at an institution initiates a request. The S&A rate increases may not exceed tuition rate increases for resident undergraduate students.2 Technology Fee In 1996, the Legislature also authorized the public four-year institutions to impose technology fees of up to $120 per year. Four institutions now charge this fee: the University of Washington, Western Washington University, Central Washington University, and Eastern Washington University. Although capped at $120, the technology fee may be adjusted or abolished with approval of the school’s student government association and the institutional governing board.3 Currently, this fee represents 3 percent or less of total tuition and fees. The table on the following page illustrates the various fees for resident undergraduates. Nonresident tuition and fees – for students who are not residents of Washington – are considerably higher.

Comparison of Tuition to the Total Cost of Instruction Washington public colleges and universities receive resources for instruction from two primary sources: operating fee revenue (tuition) and the State General Fund. Therefore, the tuition paid by an individual student covers a portion of the total cost incurred by colleges and universities to provide the instructional program for each student. Prior to 1995, tuition was charged as a specified percentage of the total cost of instruction. Since 1995, tuition has been set without specific reference to the total cost of instruction. For an undergraduate student, the following table shows the proportion of costs covered by tuition. In the current 2003-04 academic year, resident tuition makes up approximately 39 percent of the cost at comprehensive institutions and 36 percent of the cost at community colleges. Nearly 51 percent of the cost of instruction is paid by tuition at research universities. (The remaining portion of costs are covered primarily by the State General Fund, i.e., from state taxes.) Tuition for nonresident undergraduates covers the entire cost of instruction.

Total Amount of Tuition Revenue Generated In fiscal year 2003-04, institutions will receive about $514 million from tuition. In comparison, institutions will receive approximately $1.165 billion from the State General Fund.4 Tuition at Washington's Technical Colleges In 1991, Washington’s technical colleges merged with the community college system. Although the State Board for Community and Technical Colleges (SBCTC) now oversees both the technical and community colleges, the two types of schools set tuition differently. Following the merger, a SBCTC task force reviewed the tuition process and recommended, with SBCTC approval, that tuition responsibility for the technical colleges remain at the local level. Technical colleges (and the Seattle Vocational Institute) set tuition and retain it in local accounts. The task force determined that this method provides significant flexibility and allows the colleges to make decisions based on local needs. Each technical college sets tuition locally, based on program costs and market influences. Tuition rates are generally comparable across the technical colleges for similar programs and comparable to rates at community colleges.

Chapter 3: Tuition History in Washington State Historical Overview 1977-1995: Legislature Links Tuition Rates to the Cost of Instruction Between 1977 and 1995, the Legislature established tuition rates as a percentage of the cost of instruction. In 1977, when this approach was enacted by the Legislature, a Carnegie Commission study, Who Pays? Who Benefits? Who Should Pay? determined that, nationally, tuition covered 24 percent of the cost of instruction at public higher education institutions. The Commission recommended that this proportion be increased to 33 percent within 10 years. Under this “cost-sharing” approach, the student contributed a specified portion of the cost, and the state provided the remainder. Cost-sharing assumes that both the student and society benefit from having an educated and productive citizenry. To determine undergraduate and graduate instructional costs, the Legislature directed the HECB to develop and perform a cost study every four years.5 Using cost study data, the HECB transmitted to the institutions the cost basis upon which tuition would be established. 1995-1999: Legislature Sets Tuition in Statute In 1995, the Legislature removed the direct link to the cost of instruction and instead set tuition in statute as dollar amounts for each public institution. Although 1995 legislative intent stated that the tuition increases of 1995-96 and 1996-97 were a “transition measure until final action is taken in 1997,”6 the practice of specifying dollar amounts was continued through the 1997-99 biennium. Tuition amounts (or percentage increases) specified in statute have referred only to the “tuition” portion of tuition and fees. Public colleges and universities may assess additional fees, such as services and activities fees and technology fees. State statutes establish maximum amounts that can be charged for these additional fees, which vary by institution. The Legislature also directed the HECB to continue to conduct the cost study and submit “approved undergraduate and graduate educational costs to the several boards of regents and trustees of the state institutions of higher education by November 10 of each even-numbered year...”7 1999-2001: Legislature Gives Limited Tuition-Setting Authority to Institutions For the first time, in academic year 1999-2000, the Legislature and Governor gave institutions limited local tuition-setting authority. The 1999-2001 operating budget authorized colleges and universities to increase tuition up to 4.6 percent in the 1999-2000 academic year and 3.6 percent in the 2000-2001 academic year. 2001-2002 academic year: Limited Tuition-Setting Authority Continues for Institutions The Legislature and Governor continued to give institutions limited local tuition-setting authority

in academic year 2001-2002, with tuition increases authorized up to 6.7 percent. However, maximum tuition increases for graduate programs of law and business were set at 12 percent, and the University of Washington was allowed to increase tuition up to 15 percent for its graduate business programs. 2002-2003 academic year: Limited Tuition-Setting Authority for Resident Undergraduates, other categories unlimited Institutions were allowed specified maximum percentage increases (above the prior year’s tuition) for resident undergraduates, as follows:

Research Universities (UW and WSU) 16% Comprehensive Institutions (CWU, EWU, TESC, WWU) 14% Community Colleges 12%

These increases were among the highest for any year in the previous decade. And, in all cases, the institutions found it necessary to raise tuition to the allowable maximum. For other student categories – graduate and professional students and all nonresident students – no maximum was placed on allowable tuition increases. In 2002-2003, Washington’s community colleges changed the basis of tuition and fees from a full-time/part-time basis to a per-credit hour base. Tuition and fees reported here reflect the amount charged to a student taking 15 credit hours. 2003-2004 academic year: Limited Tuition-Setting Authority up to 7 Percent for Resident Undergraduates, other categories unlimited For six years (2003-04 through 2008-09), institutions may reduce or increase full-time tuition fees for all students except resident undergraduates. Increases may exceed the fiscal growth factor (ESSB 5448). For resident undergraduates, the 2003 budget specifies an increase no greater than 7 percent in academic years 2003-04 and 2004-05 at both four-year institutions and community colleges. The table on the following page compares tuition increases for the past two years for each public four-year institution, and for the community colleges.

The tables in Section IV show tuition rates for specific professional programs. The average community college tuition was authorized to increase 12 percent. Because community college tuition is now based entirely on credit-hour charges, for a student taking 15 credits the increase was 13.7 percent in 2002-03 and 8 percent in 2003-04.

Tuition Increases Over Time Washington resident undergraduate tuition and fees have increased significantly since 1993-94, and have outpaced both Washington per capita personal income (PCPI) and inflation. The growth in the rate of inflation continues to lag behind both tuition and the PCPI.

2003-04 Washington State Tuition and Fee Report Appendix A

Data Methods All data contained in this report were compiled using Washington Higher Education Coordinating Board (HECB) surveys of state agencies or individual institutions. HECB staff greatly appreciates the continued cooperation and assistance of survey respondents. Their efforts to provide accurate and timely data have helped make these reports source documents for many states as they develop their own tuition and fee analyses. With each annual survey, respondents have an opportunity to review and revise previously reported data. Though small in number, such revisions modestly affect the national averages from those displayed in earlier reports. Revisions may reflect a mid-year surcharge, discontinuation of a nonresident differential, or an adjustment in incidental fees. Data for the state colleges and universities in Tables 5 through 8 represent the average under-graduate charges at 214 state public institutions and the average graduate charges at 192 of those with graduate programs. Although not all public institutions are included in this survey, the averages and changes over time at the same set of institutions offer consistency, and the large number of institutions included provides a close approximation to state averages. Washington institutions included in this average include Central Washington University, Eastern Washington University, and Western Washington University. Tuition and fee rates for The Evergreen State College are displayed in the Peer Institution Comparison section of the report. For reporting comparability, “full-time undergraduate students” were based on 45 quarter hours or 30 semester hours and full-time graduate students were based on 30 quarter hours or 20 semester hours. Tuition and required fees include total academic year tuition and required fees for full-time students. Optional fees, such as parking or health care, are not included unless they are paid by all full-time students. Data Availability Data contained in this report, as well as the historical data since 1972-1973, are available upon request. The 2003-2004 Washington State Tuition and Fee Report is available on our Web site at www.hecb.wa.gov. For more information, please contact report author Kathy Raudenbush at (360) 753-7862 or by e-mail [email protected].
