The following table compares total campus-based mandatory fees by campus for the 2016-2017
and 2017-2018 academic years. As shown in the table, the systemwide average of campus-based
mandatory fees increased by $68 (4.8 percent). Increases in these fees occurred for various reasons.
Some campuses have authorized annual incremental increases for certain fees that keep pace with
inflation such as the California Consumer Price Index or Higher Education Price Index. Student
success fee increases approved when the fees were originally authorized account for a large part
of the increase at Dominguez Hills and San Diego. Additionally, Monterey Bay increased their
student center fee to expand the student union and increased their instructionally-related activities
fee to enhance recreation activities, fitness facilities, and intercollegiate athletics. San Francisco
also increased their student center fee to provide a new wellness center and instituted a new transit
pass fee.
