In his address, Ulaszek said the tuition estimate for fall 2023 is $2.1 million short of the budget, meaning the college needs to come up with $2.1 million mid-year to give back to central administration to fill the budget gap. Elisia Cohen, director of the Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication, said, in theory, students’ tuition revenue should be able to support the cost of instruction. Tuition is the primary source of CLA revenue, making up 71% of the revenue for the current fiscal year, according to Ulaszek’s address. Undergraduate tuition is the largest share of that revenue, currently making up 80%.
