SUBJECT:
Capital Outlay FTE Projections
DUE: September 23, 2002
The Division of Community Colleges is requesting the community colleges to
submit the Capital Outlay FTE projections by
September 23, 2002
.
The Division annually develops six year Capital Outlay FTE projections. The
Capital Outlay FTE projections are used by the Office of Educational Facilities to
calculate space needs for the facilities surveys. Because the FTE Enrollment Plan
was just submitted by the colleges, the Division is using these projections for the
Capital Outlay FTE projections. Colleges are
not
allowed to change the
projection totals, but may redistribute the projections by site.
For your information, attached are the 2001-2002 FTE-3 and the FTE Enrollment
Plan 2002-2003 projections system summary reports. The 2001-2002 FTE-3 were
reviewed and adopted by the August 16, 2002, Enrollment Estimating Conference.
The Division and the Office of Educational Facilities have agreed that the Capital
Outlay FTE projections would be calculated only once a year. The community
colleges are allowed to make site adjustments to the projections before the
projections are given to the Office of Educational Facilities. The projections will
remain in effect for the year unless an emergency or special circumstance should
occur. The State Board of Community Colleges (which is no longer in existence)
adopted this procedure in 1996.
