BOARD OF TRUSTEES

[October 16

CHANGES IN STUDENT T U I T I O N (8) On July 24, 1968, the Board of Trustees approved in principle an increase of $75 per year in resident tuition and $100 per year in nonresident tuition effective in the fall of 1969, plus an additional $100 per year in nonresident tuition effective in the fall of 1970, as proposed by the Illinois Board of Higher Education. T o implement this action, I recommend that the following fee schedule be ad °Pted: EightAnnual SemesQuarWeek Amount ter ter Term Illinois Residents Fall 1969 Range I $246 $123 $82 $62 Range II 174 87 58 44 Range I I I 102 51 34 26 Nonresidents Fall 1969 Range 1 852 426 284 213 Range II 600 300 200 150 Range III 342 171 114 86 Nonresidents Fall 1970 Range 1 Range II Range I I I 954 660 372 477 330 186 318 220 124 239 165 93

T h e semester rates will be charged at the Urbana-Champaign campus during the two regular semesters. The quarter rates are charged for all terms at the Chicago Circle and the Medical Center campuses, and for any eleven- or twelveweek summer program at the Urbana-Champaign campus. The eight-week-term rates are charged for the regular summer session at the Urbana-Champaign campus. (Range I is for a full time schedule above ten hours or two and one-half units in a semester or quarter. Range II is above five hours or one and onefourth units up to and including ten hours or two and one-half units; Range I I I is above zero up to and including five hours or one and one-fourth units.) (In order to keep fees in whole dollars and the same at all campuses, the increase may be $1.00 or $2.00 a year more than the amount recommended by the Illinois Board of Higher Education. Service fees, which are in addition to tuition, vary somewhat by campus, and are not affected by this recommendation.) O n m o t i o n of M r .

CHANGES IN TUITION FOR CORRESPONDENCE A N D EXTRAMURAL INSTRUCTION (9) In accordance with the anticipated increases in tuition for on-campus study and to compensate for proposed increases in faculty teaching stipend rates for extramural classes, the Dean of the Division of University Extension recommends, with concurrence of the University Committee on Fees, that a standard tuition fee of $15.00 per semester hour and $10.00 per quarter hour be assessed for correspondence and extramural credit courses, and that a standard tuition fee of $15.00 be assessed for each sixteen hours of instruction (equivalent to one semester hour) in noncredit extramural courses. Currently, visitors in extramural courses pay the same tuition as students registered in the course for credit, except that in cases of multiple credit courses the visitor pays the fee applicable to the lowest credit provided in the course. No change is proposed in this policy. I concur and recommend that these changes become effective September 1, 1969. O n m o t i o n of M r .

CHANGE IN STUDENT NON-REFUNDABLE CHARGES (10) In order to compensate for the reduction in allocation to the Service Fee resulting from the increased allocation to the Hospital-Medical-Surgical Fee (effected by the Trustees' action of June 19, 1968), I recommend the following
