Notice of Proposed Fee Change

August 23, 2024 Indian River State College

The Indian River State College District Board of Trustees will hold its regularly scheduled meeting on September 24, 2024 at 1 p.m. In addition to the regular agenda, which may include, but is not limited to, business affairs, personnel matters, facilities items, and academic and student affairs, the District Board of Trustees will consider changes to application, laboratory, and testing fees.

Florida Statute 1009.23(12)(a) grants authority to Florida College System institutional boards of trustees to establish fees within a range allowed by state statute. These fees “shall not exceed the cost of services provided and shall only be charged to persons receiving the service.”

The proposed fees listed below are a result of a thorough review of the costs of every laboratory and course and reflect the costs of consumables, as well as pass-through fees for testing and insurance. All laboratory and course fees are used to purchase items specifically related to that course’s student learning outcomes and course objectives.

The following chart highlights proposed per-course fee changes, effective Spring 2025:
