On April 29, I received a recommending UAF move to a consolidated fee model beginning in fall 2020.
|
The proposed consolidated fee structure will streamline the number of fees that appear on your student account. All ³ÉÈËӰƬ will see the same charges. Furthermore, under the new model more ³ÉÈËӰƬ will have access to benefits from student mental health services, student government (ASUAF), and student programming.
|
The fees proposed for consolidation under the new model include:
|
- student government
- recreation
- sustainability
- health center
- student activities and services
- libraries and digital resources
- transportation
- Summer Sessions
- and technology and distance delivery.
In the consolidated fee structure ³ÉÈËӰƬ will see just three charges for non-course-related fees on their accounts: one for the new UAF consolidated fee, one for the UA network charge, and one for a UA facilities fee.
|
The Fairbanks campus and CTC rate is proposed at $50 per student credit hour, and the CRCD rate is proposed at $20 per student credit hour.
|
Under the UAF consolidated fee model, courses taken from the Fairbanks campus will result in savings between 3 and 12 credits and CTC will see savings between 3 and 9 credits. So, for example, an average full-time Fairbanks Campus student taking 12 credits will see a reduction in fee charges from $684 to $600, a savings of $84 dollars (excluding course fees).
|
in the proposal from the Tuition and Fee Committee shows a detailed breakout of all the current fees charged per credit for each course location compared to the proposed fee model.
|
The recommendations come after the committee’s careful evaluation of UAF’s current fee structure, budget climate and departmental needs across the university, combined with input from the campus community.
|
Details about UAF’s fee structure and distribution breakdown are published annually in the registration guide, academic catalog, and on all tuition and fee schedules.
|
I would like to thank the Tuition and Fee Committee for their recommendations. Keith Champagne, vice chancellor for student affairs, will host a to discuss this topic and any others that are important to you. That session will take place Thursday, May 21, from 3-4 p.m. ³ÉÈËӰƬ time. He’ll be joined by other members of our student services staff, including Ali Knabe, Ronnie Houchin, Cody Rogers and Amanda Wall.
|
I encourage you to participate if you have questions or concerns about the proposed fee consolidation. I expect to make a final decision by June 1, 2020.
|
I look forward to seeing you in the fall. I wish you well and hope you have a great summer.
|
— Dan White, chancellor
