SUBJECT:

Executive Order No. 879: Optional Summer Term State University Fee Schedules
 

Attached is Executive Order No. 879, which adjusts the Optional Summer Term State University Fee (SUF) Schedules to be consistent with the SUF schedule adopted by the Board of Trustees in July 2003. Implementation of these summer term fee schedules continues to be optional.
 
Each campus adopting an alternative summer term State University Fee schedule must estimate its fee revenue and is still responsible for meeting its fee revenue goal without additional support from the CSU systemwide office.
 
The summer term fee options will be reevaluated as summer programs are implemented and expanded or, as in this case, when changes to the State University Fee are adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
In accordance with policy of the California State University, the campus president is responsible for implementing executive orders where applicable and for maintaining the campus repository and index for all executive orders.

Executive Order 879
 

Executive Order:

879
 

Title:

Optional Summer Term State University Fee Schedules
 

Effective Date:

Summer Term 2004
 

Supersedes:

Executive Order No. 848
 

This Executive Order is issued pursuant to authority granted by Education Code Section 89700 and Board of Trustees' Resolution RFIN 07-03-10. This Executive Order adjusts summer term State University Fee Schedules to be consistent with the fee adjustment adopted by the Board of Trustees in July 2003. It reaffirms the option available to all campuses to implement a summer term, per unit fee schedule and allows campuses utilizing an academic calendar based on quarters to increase the number of units in which their students can be enrolled at the lower tier of the State University Fee. Effective summer term 2004, CSU campuses are authorized to establish the following summer term State University Fee schedules:
 

Optional, Summer Term Per Unit State University Fee Schedule Available For All Campuses
Units	Per Unit Fee Option for All Campuses	Semester Campuses Maximum for the Summer Term	Quarter Campuses Maximum for the Summer Term	Stanislaus Campus Maximum for the Summer Term
Undergraduate:
6.1 or more	$107	$1023	$682	$1023
0 to 6.0	$146	$  594	$396	$  594
Graduate:
6.1 or more	$120	$1128	$752	$1128
0 to 6.0	$164	$  654	$436	$  654

Alternative Optional Summer Term Per Unit State University Fee Schedule Available to Quarter-Calendar Campuses Only
Units	Quarter Campuses Summer Term Maximum
Undergraduate:
8.1 or more	$682
0 to 8.0	$396
Graduate:
8.1 or more	$752
0 to 8.0	$436

Both of the fee schedules described above, the Summer Term Per Unit Fee Schedule and the Alternative Summer Term Fee Schedule (for Quarter-Calendar Campuses Only) are optional. As noted in the first table, however, the State University Fees paid by students on campuses where the Optional Summer Term Per Unit Fee Schedule has been implemented may not exceed the maximum semester/quarter fees established by the California State University's Board of Trustees.
