This executive order is issued under the authority
granted by Education Code Sections 89035 and 89700, Standing Orders
of the Board of Trustees, Chapter II, i, and Board of Trustees’
Resolution RFIN 03-04-00, and consonant with Executive Order Number
740.
Effective December 13, 2005, California State University, San Marcos
is authorized to establish Category III, Special Examination Fee
for Nursing Programs to be charged at the fee rate of $50. The fee
will cover the cost of test materials and administration, and will
be charged to potential nursing students who take the Test of Essential
Academic Skills or an equivalent test used for the same purpose,
administered by California State University, San Marcos.
Revenue collected from Category III fees are to be deposited either
in the General Fund or in a local trust account, depending on the
nature of the fee. In accordance with Education Code Section 89721(g),
revenue collected may be deposited in a local trust account where
the fee is required of those persons who, at their option, use the
services or facilities, or are provided the materials, for which
the fee is collected. In other words, if the student has the option
to procure the service or materials for which the fee is charged
on the open market or some other way separate from the university
and still fulfill the requirements of the university, the revenue
may be deposited in trust. Revenue so deposited shall be used solely
to meet the costs of providing these services, materials, and facilities.
Otherwise, in accordance with Section 89724(a) of the Education
Code, revenue collected from miscellaneous course fees shall be
deposited in the State Treasury and credited to the General Fund
for the support of the university in addition to such other amounts
as may be appropriated therefor by the Legislature.
