'My hope is that I can be a voice for the alumni and be part of the process of ensuring the vitality of our University,' says Bryan K. Pollard ’85 (CLAS), member of the Board of Trustees.

The budgets, which go into effect July 1, include $1.46 billion for Storrs and the regional campuses, and $1.24 billion for UConn Health, including the UConn John Dempsey Hospital and the schools of medicine and dental medicine.

In light of rapidly growing enrollment at the Stamford Campus, the University is considering adding new majors and additional student services.

Beginning in fall 2019, the General University Fee will increase for the first time in five years, and Stamford student housing rates will be adjusted to reflect increases in the area’s rental market.
