From: Alice B. Johnson Vice President for Finance and Business Affairs

Subject: 2011-2012 Course and Optional Participation Fees -

Reason for Consideration: Informational Item Enclosures: Yes

Background:

At its May 11, 2011 meeting, the Board of Regents approved the 2011-12 Course and Optional Participation Fees. Following the May 11, 2011 board meeting, changes were made to several optional participation fees. Additionally, national testing services/agencies announced changes to their fees which KSU does not collect as these fees are paid directly to the testing services/agencies.

In the future, only testing fees assessed by KSU will be listed for Board approval on the Course and Optional Participation Fee schedule.

The attached schedule lists the 2011-12 Course and Optional Participation Fees as approved on May 11, 2011 with requested changes to be approved at the July 22, 2011 meeting.
