Methodology Letters
Methodology letters describe how a particular year's tuition rates were calculated. Each year's methodology letter includes a description of general rate setting methodologies which dictate inflation factors, nondirect cost parameters, applied revenues, total cost screens as well as specific rate setting procedures which are used to calculate tuition rates for different types of programs. Methodology Letters are in either html format or pdf format for printing.
