Summary of Financial Capacity
- State tax support is flat, similar to other campuses across
the U.S.
- We are increasingly dependent on tuition revenue and
continue to experience enrollment volatility
- Most of our resources are in existing base budget: We
need to be very thoughtful about how we deploy these resources going forward
- Need to continue to engage in cross-divisional planning
activities to align our recurring sources and uses -- to sustain our financial future and our ability to embrace new opportunities

- NACUBO Functional Classifications - These classifications ensure that expenditures are posted
to the correct function. The National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) created these classifications in order to standardize reporting across colleges and universities.
- OAP: Overseas Academic Programs
- Pooled Offset – State tax support is reduced by an amount equal to the fringe benefit
collections in the special revenue funds (IFR, DIFR, SUTRA); SUNY keeps the collected fringe benefit charges in lieu of State tax support. This revenue is distributed to campuses as if were State tax support, generally in proportion to the total campus state support and is part of the “State and Other Support” component.
- Restricted Funds – Funds that must be used, or are designated expressly, for a particular
purpose or activity
