Certified Budget Report FY 2016, June 4, 2015

The Certified Budget Report is prepared annually by each community college. Each college has specific steps that it follows in order to prepare this report and to submit it to the controlling county auditor by March 15 of each year. In January, the valuation reports are available from the county auditors to use as a basis for tax revenue estimates. In preparing the Certified Budget Report, historical year numbers are verified, current year numbers are re-estimated, and the next fiscal year numbers are estimated. Once the Certified Budget Report is prepared, it is filed with the community college board. After filing with the community college board, a public hearing is set. The date for the public hearing must be published no sooner than 20 days before the hearing and no later than 10 days before the hearing. At that public hearing, any comments from the public are heard and the board votes to accept the budget. If adopted by the board, the budget is filed with the controlling county auditor.

Iowa Community Colleges Student Enrollment Report, December 2000

The Iowa community colleges transmit the Fall 2000 enrollments to the Department of Education after the 14th day of the fall term start date. All data in this report, except where noted, are taken from the Management Information System (MIS) electronic data files and are confirmed by the community college transmittal sheet. The Fall 2000 unduplicated credit headcount enrollment of 65,473 demonstrates an increase of 3 percent over Fall 1999 enrollment of 63,809.

Iowa Community Colleges Student Enrollment Report, December 2000

Fall enrollment grew 1.2 percent to a record high of 88,104 unduplicated students in fiscal year 2009 (Table 1). College enrollment has grown for 11 consecutive years since enrollment slipped in fiscal year 1997. In the 44‐year history of the modern community college system, enrollment has only fallen four times (Figure 1). Enrollment growth was slightly slower than prior years. In 2006, enrollment grew over three percent, while enrollment grew 2.5 percent last year. Nevertheless, enrollment growth is outpacing the projected nationwide growth in community colleges (Hussar and Bailey, 2008: Table 16). For the second consecutive year, part‐time enrollment exceeded full‐time enrollment. Slightly over half, 50.9 percent, of students are enrolled in less than 12 credit hours. Last year, part‐time enrollment exceeded full‐time enrollment for the first time. The shift represents growing enrollment by working students and joint enrollment— high school students who enroll in community colleges.. Nationally, part‐time enrollment at public two‐year colleges has exceeded full‐time enrollment for more than 15 years. In 2006, part‐time students exceeded full‐time students by 60 percent (Hussar and Bailey, 2008: Table 16). Iowa’s enrollment growth has traditionally been consistent. Enrollment decreased four times—1976, 1983, 1984, and 1997—during the entire 44‐year history. Fulltime enrollment decreased nine times over the same period while part time enrollment only fell twice. The remainder of this report will break down credit enrollment by credit hours, student demographics, the programs in which students are enrolled, how the programs break down demographically, and joint enrollment.
