Fee Consultation Process

In an effort to provide for student consultation and to assist in planning for the next few years, the university is providing a five-year broad-based fee plan, including anticipated student fee rates for 2025-26 through 2029-30. These proposed rate increases are only for the purposes of student consultation, and final approvals are the directive of the SUNY Chancellor.
