Whats up with URI not charging student fees?
10K students + X $100 each is $1M +?
Never find them to be most creative bunch,this is crazy.
Was it eliminated during recession?
Can't believe the students want this?

According to this from the URI website, the school charged undergraduates almost $3,700 in fees during the 2016-17 academic year. http://web.uri.edu/catalog/tuition-and-fees/

The article says the fees do not go toward athletics.

"Every season, college basketball has one or two teams that rise from dormancy to relevancy, squads that make long-awaited charges at the NCAA Tournament and become really fun storylines along the way."
Re: Great article on D1 Funding-Rhody only school with no student fees?
I wonder how much of $3700 goes to athletics?
Any?
Newbies like FAU and FIU charge $350 a year-highest in country?
Florida only $60? Read these figures once.
Florida law I believe does not allow taxes to go to athletics. So the kids pick up the slack (they vote on it typically).
Rhody should be in the middle (I hope). There should be a straight athletics figure?

Re: Great article on D1 Funding-Rhody only school with no student fees?
Is this article really accurate? Unless I'm misunderstanding, the article seems to suggest that our athletic department is turning a profit and that we don't field an FCS football team.
I'm pretty sure that there are only a couple of schools (Texas and Florida, I believe) that have profitable athletic departments. Without knowing the exact numbers, I would doubt that our athletic department turns a profit.

Re: Great article on D1 Funding-Rhody only school with no student fees?
The article says the athletic department is profitable as a standalone entity, but only because $20.8M of revenue is coming from school funding. To URI as a whole this would imply that the department is a running at a loss of just over $20M assuming all figures reported are accurate. This loss figure can also be misleading because it in no way accounts for the benefit to other areas of the university that athletics provide.

Misleading, inaccurate article. As always, it's way more complicated than what USA Today reports.

ATP agreed-how much of Rhodys student fees go towards athletics then? Obvious error,I hope,but no one can answer?
Shaolin-Florida may turn a profit,but they still collect student fees.

Yeah there is 100% an athletics fee assessed per every student. It's the cornerstone of why students don't have to pay for tickets to games, and a very large chunk of athletics' operating budget.
I believe they have now buried the "athletics" fee in the "student services" fee, which is all-encompassing.

At least the picture choice for Vermont was interesting. That poor guy.

Re: Great article on D1 Funding-Rhody only school with no student fees?
Blue Man is 100% correct. There is an all encompassing student services fee that's $1030 per year for full-time undergrads and $838 per year for graduate students. According to the Cigar article I posted a few months back, $418 of that fee goes to pay for the bonds on the Ryan Center and Boss Arena. I'm also pretty positive that there's also a cut of the remaining fee that goes to athletic operations.

This is all true. That is why you non matriculate as long as you can. You don't pay any fees.
