THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The Board reviewed and is set to preliminarily approve a $2.1 billion unrestricted budget for FY 2026-27 with a projected $15.5 million deficit and ongoing workforce and cost pressures. Universities are planning for flat tuition and appropriation assumptions, enrollment shifts, and increased healthcare costs, with final budgets due in October 2026. This creates demand for consulting, analytics, and technology to optimize enrollment, aid, staffing, shared services, and cost control across the State System.

Background

Highlights include enrollment decline of 0.7%, 2.0% growth in personnel costs, and planned workforce reductions; auxiliary budgets project surpluses while E&G shows deficits.
