Enrolled as Percentage of Admissions 60% (1) Fall quarter enrollment as reported to the Integrated Post-secondary Education Data System (IPEDS), under which one FTE equals 15 undergraduate credits or 12 graduate credits. Includes both State-funded and non-State-funded students. Data recorded from IPEDS reports on December 7, 2017. (2) Course Enrollment Dashboard data, as of December 7, 2017. (3) Fall 2016 and Fall 2017 data obtained from WebFOCUS software, as of December 5, 2017. Prior years’ data collected from annual Common Data Set annual reports. Tuition and Room and Board Charges State tuition policy has stabilized since the spring of 2015 when the State Legislature redrafted the law governing higher education funding. The new law implemented 5 percent and 15 percent cuts in tuition rates in 2015 and 2016, respectively. Those reductions were accompanied by State funded appropriations sufficient to backfill tuition reductions. In 2017 and in all years going forward, the revised law (RCW 28B.15.067) allows institutions to increase tuition, but caps annual increases for resident undergraduate students to the State’s average annual percentage growth rate in the median hourly wage for the previous 14 years as the wage is determined by the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Board may set tuition at any rate for all other categories of students. As a result of the change in the State’s tuition policy, the State share of higher education funding grew from approximately 32 percent in 2014 to nearly 49 percent in fiscal year 2017. The Board has assumed the maximum allowed tuition increase of about 2.2 percent for fiscal year 2018. Resident and non-resident tuition, including State-mandated fees, and room and board rates for the current year and past four academic years are shown in the table below and have been approved by the Board. Resident undergraduates represent approximately 92 percent of all undergraduate students at the University.
