UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI
UNDESIGNATED GENERAL FUNDS
BRANCH CAMPUSES
OVERVIEW
In FY 2009, due to new State funding, State appropriations are projected to increase at
the branches. Tuition and fees will remain unchanged due to the related provisions in the
State of Ohio budget.
RAYMOND WALTERS COLLEGE
Raymond Walters College will be undergoing its ten-year accreditation during this
budget cycle. As part of that Accreditation Self-Study, we are focusing on areas that
have been identified through gap analysis as being in need of resources. This will include
improving student advising, adding tenure track faculty, and developing a master space
utilization plan.
In conjunction with the Governors University System of Ohio and UC|21, we will be
strengthening our relationship: with K-12 in Post Secondary and Dual Enrollment
programs, with Accountability and Credibility Together (ACT), and with joint programs
with Cincinnati State Technical and Community College, Clermont College and the
Great Oaks Joint Vocational Center. The Professional Development Institute (PDI)
continues their efforts in Work Force Development by playing a major role in the Region
V Work Force Coalition.
RWC will increase scholarships to traditional students and continue investigating ways to
service non-traditional students with flexible scheduling and hybrid courses.
Capital funds will be used for Life Safety upgrades, computer lab upgrades and
classroom upgrades.
Raymond Walters College is expecting a slight increase in enrollment for the coming
year.
CLERMONT COLLEGE
Clermont College has enjoyed dramatic enrollment growth in the current year, and we are
projecting this trend to continue into FY 2009. Last fall, we saw an increase of 7.8%
FTE which has continued throughout the year and has been boosted by a 4% increase in
retention. In addition to this internal growth, we are also engaging with institutions in the
area for Dual Enrollment, Post Secondary, and the new Ohio Seniors-to-Sophomores
programs. Our outreach location in Milford is pleased to be hosting a new program next
fall in Addictions. Our academic restructuring is nearing completion and we are poised
well to serve our regional needs.
