Systemwide

Fall

The Chancellor’s Office prepares the Trustees’ Budget which is then submitted to the State Department of Finance and the Legislative Analyst. Continuing through the winter and spring, budget discussions occur among Chancellor’s Office staff, State Finance, the Trustees, the Governor, the Campus Presidents, employee organizations, and legislators. Also involved are the Legislative Analysts Office and the Statewide Academic Senate.

Winter

After discussions with the Governor, the State Department of Finance prepares the Governor’s Budget, which is then submitted to the Legislature. The Legislative Analyst studies the budget and makes recommendations to the Legislature. Legislative hearings on the budget are held.

Spring/Summer

The Final Budget is allocated to the University along with a detailed explanation of the changes from the Trustees’ and Governor’s budgets.

 On-Campus

A few months prior to the start of the fiscal year, the University develops its projected budget, informally known as the Really Big Budget Report (RBBR). This budget plans for the funding of various university-wide items such as staff benefits, revenues, work study, communications, and utilities. The report incorporates the agreed-upon basis of allocation of the budget to the vice presidents and sometimes results in a deficit which must be funded by the President’s reserve or by various units of the campus. Through the use of this plan, the campus has been able to start each fiscal year with a balanced budget and to retain the ability to meet unanticipated needs for additional resources. The RBBR is also prepared periodically, on an as-needed basis, throughout the fiscal year and is presented to the Budget Advisory Committee for their information and review.

Early in the fiscal year, the President’s allocation letters are prepared and distributed. The sub-allocation of funds is determined by the appropriate vice president.
