| Abstract: | Community colleges are currently facing the perfect fiscal storm: historical reductions in state appropriations while at the same time experiencing significant enrollment growth. Community college leaders are pondering how to effectively compensate for unprecedented budget cuts while meeting the demands of student access and increasing levels of pressure and accountability with regards to improving student completion. If community colleges are to maintain or exceed their current level of performance and accommodate student access, they need to generate alternative sources of funding. In a national study of state community college systems, six state community college directors indicated that their state's community colleges would utilize a differential tuition model in order to compensate for the loss of state funds. The purpose of the study was to follow-up with those six states to learn how differential tuition models are being utilized among the public community colleges. The lessons from these states provide recommendations for policy and practice. |
