Educational Appropriations and Tuition Revenue
In FY 2024, educational appropriations per student decreased for the first time in over a decade, but still remain 40% higher than FY 2014. Tuition revenue per student has also increased overall in the past decade, despite recent year over year decreases.
Notes: Full-time equivalent enrollment is equal to one student enrolled full-time for one academic year, excluding most non-credit/non-degree programs and medical students. Net tuition revenue is the gross amount of tuition and fees, less state and institutional aid, waivers and discounts, and medical student tuition and fees. Educational appropriations are state and local support available for public higher education operating expenses. Figures are adjusted for inflation using the Higher Education Cost Adjustment, enrollment mix, and cost-of-living differences among states.
