UC Board of Regents proposes decrease in nonresident student population

Danielle Smith, UC Office of the President spokesperson, said in an email that the state requested the UC system to form a report discussing the potential impact of reducing undergraduate nonresident enrollment, with results to be finalized by April 2019. According to Smith, the analysis will not impact student admissions or tuition for the fall 2019 semester. George Kieffer, the Board of Regents chair, said at the meeting that this plan would only commence “if the state agrees to fund fully the university for the revenue that would be lost… I, like others, believe that the world’s best university ought to have a certain number of nonresident students… At the same time, we have a deep obligation to continue addressing the education needs of Californians within the context of the master plan.”
