INTRODUCTION

This report includes tuition and fee data for flagship institutions, comprehensive institutions, and community colleges. This is the forty-third such report prepared in Washington. Previous annual reports published by predecessor agencies to the Washington Student Achievement Council are available online at http://wsac.wa.gov/hecb-archives.

Tuition and fee rates for academic year 2013-14 were collected by staff from the Connecticut Office of Higher Education, who developed an online tool to collect these data from the 50 states and transmitted the information to the Council in early 2014. Washington Student Achievement Council staff analyzed the data and prepared the current report.

States also had the opportunity to amend their data for prior years (in this case, 2009-10 to 2012-13) to account for any changes that occurred after submitting last year’s report. Several states have done so, usually due to legislative changes adopted after their response or to mid-year changes. As a result, some of the figures and averages for prior years will not match those reported in last year’s report.

NATIONAL CONTEXT

As the U.S. economy grows following the Great Recession, tuition growth continues to slow. At flagship institutions, the average increase from 2012-13 to 2013-14 was just under four percent. Several states, including Washington, froze tuition this academic year, though the data show small changes due to increases in mandatory fees. In all, 20 states increased total resident undergraduate tuition and fees at their flagship institution by less than $200.

Resident undergraduate tuition and fees grew by three percent in the comprehensive sector. Sixteen states held average tuition and fee growth below $200 in this sector. Whereas five states saw tuition growth of over ten percent in this sector from 2011-12 to 2012-13, only two states exceeded that figure this year.

Growth in community college tuition was similar to the other sectors at three percent. In all, 20 states, including Washington, held tuition and fee growth below $100 in the two-year college sector, with Missouri significantly reducing tuition for residents.

Appendix A of this report includes six bar charts showing resident undergraduate tuition and required fees for each state, and providing comparisons to the national and “Global Challenge State” (GCS) averages. Bar charts showing percentage changes in tuition and required fees between 2012-13 and 2013-14 are also provided.

Appendix B provides national comparison tables of tuition and required fees by sector and residency, for years 2009-10 through 2013-14.

Appendix C provides a list of the institutions included in this analysis.

HOW WASHINGTON COMPARES

After years of very rapid growth, tuition and fee rates in all three sectors slowed considerably in Washington. With the Legislature freezing tuition, the only growth was a small increase in mandatory fees at the University of Washington. As a result, Washington’s ranking dropped in each resident undergraduate category from 2012-13, and the rate of increase was below the national average. However, Washington’s total tuition and fee rates remain above the national average in each sector.

LIMITATIONS

The tuition and fee survey is based on tuition and mandatory fees at each institution. Ideally, this measure replicates the “tuition and mandatory fees” figure that institutions provide prospective students when disclosing their cost of attendance, and represents what most students actually pay. However, each state, and sometimes each institution, may treat fees differently. Some require students to purchase health insurance, and others may call this a non-mandatory fee if students retain coverage through their parents. In addition, many of these fees are levied by student groups themselves, whether for debt service or for other student activities.

Tuition policy—and thus state revenues and support of institutions of higher education—drives much of the volatility in these rates, but these student fees may be driven by other factors. Adding the two together is necessary to see the impact on students, but it does mix two distinct categories of fees, each with their own drivers and relationship to the broader economy.

This survey has been conducted by the Council and its predecessor agencies since the early 1970s. New institutions, or institutions with new missions, were not included so that comparisons could be made across time using the same set of institutions in each state. The impact of this research decision is that several institutions are excluded from the analysis. For example, in Washington, The Evergreen State College is not included in the “comprehensive” category, and in California, over ten institutions in the California State University system are also excluded.

A related issue concerns research institutions that are not designated as the state’s “flagship.” For instance, Washington State University is a research institution but is not designated as the state’s flagship, so it is not included in the report. Council staff are reviewing the possibility of including all public institutions in next year’s survey.

CONCLUSION

The period from 2008 to 2012 marked a sea change in Washington’s tuition policy, and saw states throughout the country shift more of the cost of public higher education to students. With recessionary pressures abating, that shift appears to be slowing considerably. As state revenues have stabilized, many states—including Washington—have shifted focus to issues of student debt, the rising cost of attendance, and equal access in the face of tuition increases, financial aid reductions, or both.

Many other functional areas of government also saw reductions, and it remains to be seen whether higher education can restore funding lost during the recession. As tuition growth is inextricably tied to state funding, policy makers—and students—will be watching to see how tuition policy shifts throughout the nation.
