Student-Focused Funding Model Implementation
TIMELINE OF WORK TO DATE
June 2017
Commission research staff begins review of other states' higher education
funding models.
July 7, 2017
Effective date of House Bill 2815
August - October 2017
Funding model research continues. Commission staff use institutional
data to conduct mathematical modeling exercises to determine the extent
to which factors commonly used by other states will affect a potential
model.
Factors are combined into hypothetical models that are later used in
preliminary discussions with constituent groups.
Conversations are held with key legislative leaders and Governor's Office
representatives to consider the factors that should be included in a
preliminary draft of the funding framework and to discuss the possibility of
an extended timeline for the research study.
November 2017
Nine web-based meetings are hosted with the executive leadership teams
of each institution between November 8 and 28. Institutional leaders
share initial impressions on the proposed framework, and are invited to
submit more formal feedback as the process continues through the end of
the year and into the second phase of the project.
December 2017
Commission programming and research staff continue mathematical
modeling work.
December 29, 2017
A preliminary report on the status of the project is submitted to Legislative
leadership as required by statute. The report includes a proposal for a
modified timeline to extend the work through the end of 2018.
