Title:

Student Success, Graduation and Career Placement Fee

This executive order is issued pursuant to Education Code Section 89035 and Board of Trustees Standing Orders, Section II(i) and consonant with Executive Order Number 1054.

Effective September, 2011, California State University, San Bernardino is authorized to establish a mandatory Student Success, Graduation and Career Placement fee at the rate of $54 per quarter, or $162 per academic year.

Revenue from this fee will go toward the following four (4) priorities which comprise the Campus’ Student Success, Graduation and Career Placement initiative:

The fee will be assessed to provide improved advising and retention services, increased student development opportunities, expanded access to critical technologies, and enhanced career services. Students will be consulted for advice on the use of revenues received from this fee and the campus will develop a plan for outcomes and accountability to ensure proper management of fee revenues. The president is delegated authority under EO 1054 to increase, decrease, suspend or eliminate this fee as needed.

Board of Trustees fee policy requires that the revenue generated by this fee be reviewed annually by the student fee advisory committee and reported to the Chancellor’s Office in the annual fee survey. If balances exist without an expenditure plan, the campus may be asked to reduce or suspend the fee until such time that all balances are spent on the priorities indicated in this executive order.

In accordance with Section 89721(l) of the Education Code, revenue collected from student fees shall be deposited in a local trust account.
