The Pennsylvania General Assembly approved Penn State’s nonpreferred appropriations bill as part of the 2022-23 commonwealth budget. For the third consecutive year, the university’s general support appropriation will remain flat at $242.1 million. Back in February, Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf called for Penn State to receive a 5% funding increase, which would’ve been its first increase since the 2019-20 academic year (2% increase). In September of 2021, the university also requested that its general support appropriation be increased.
