In fall 2018, in an effort to improve transparency and student affordability, the campus eliminated course and program fees and shifted the source of funding from student-paid fees to campus-funded budgets, now reconceived as Academic Program Allocations (APAs).
Timeline
The APAs process will begin a three-year pilot period July 1, 2019.
