Scenarios the four campuses face depend on how much money Colorado lawmakers will set aside for higher education
—
The University of Colorado Board of Regents got a first look Thursday at possible tuition and fee hikes for next year if Gov. Jared Polis’ proposed budget is adopted by the state legislature, as well as potential cuts to the system’s medical campus and nationally recognized cybersecurity program.
The presentation focused on several budget scenarios the university’s four campuses face depending on how much state funding state lawmakers allocate. Lawmakers on the state’s joint budget committee could propose a different amount than the governor’s proposal. State lawmakers must find $1 billion in cuts in order to balance the budget.
