UConn was facing a $76 million projected budget deficit last fall for the 2021 fiscal year, but was able to save $44.8 million through a combination of hiring and spending freezes. Those savings, along with federal and state aid, allowed the school to balance its budget, he said. UConn’s 2022 budget is also projected to “be in balance despite a $40 million structural deficit” that is largely driven by legacy costs, Jordan said. The 2022 budget the board adopted Wednesday contains $1.6 billion for Storrs and regional campuses and $1.39 billion for UConn Health’s medical, clinical, and academic operations.
