american university budget
fiscal years 2012 and 2013
(May 1, 2011–April 30, 2013)
A Report from the President
Adopted by the Board of Trustees
February 25, 2011
Report from President Kerwin
The AU Board of Trustees (BOT) recently approved the university budget for fiscal years 2012 and 2013. The budget builds
upon progress made in achieving the objectives for the first two years of the university’s strategic plan, American University and the
Next Decade: Leadership for a Changing World, and aligns resources with a fresh set of objectives that provide the greatest capacity to
advance our larger goals in the third and fourth years of strategic plan implementation. Those objectives were contained in my
communication to the AU Community on January 21, 2011. All budget proposals were structured in accordance with the strategic
plan, and the strategic goals guided the work of the University Budget Committee, the Provost, Vice Presidents and directors. Input
and suggestions were solicited from the university community in a variety of ways, including town hall meetings. The outcome of
these efforts is a proposal to invest over $60 million on strategic objectives and action steps for two years (see highlights on
pp. 12–13).
This budget marks significant milestones for the university. The biennial budget now exceeds $1 billion in revenue and
expenditures. This reflects a steady growth in the size, complexity, and quality of our institution despite troublesome economic
times. The budget also continues our practice of explicit and firm linkage between academic priorities and the beginning of our
next ten-year facilities plan with the 2011 Campus Plan.
The financial condition of the university has never been stronger. Our emphasis on effective enrollment management,
rigorous internal controls, and the continuation of financial safeguard policies has proven to be critical to the university’s positive
financial standing. This budget reflects both confidence in our prospects and the intent to make a strong statement about the
seriousness of our commitment to the strategic plan. I am confident we will advance this institution to a higher level in coming
years through the sound investment of our resources.
Freshmen and transfer enrollments are budgeted at 1,550 and 335, respectively, while continuing to emphasize student
quality, diversity, and selectivity. Graduate, Washington Semester, law, and non-degree enrollment categories are budgeted
conservatively.
There will be a 3.8 percent increase in undergraduate, graduate, and law tuition rates in each year, which is the
lowest rate increase for the past 15 years; a five percent increase for MBA and graduate business in each year; and
residence hall rates will increase one percent in FY2012 and two percent in FY2013. AU’s tuition and mandatory fees
are below the mid-point of our market competitors, based on the latest available data (see table on pp. 16–17). These
increases will not significantly change our position and are necessary to make strategic investments to support the second
two-year implementation phase of the strategic plan.
Consistent with the strategic plan, this budget provides for:
• increased full-time faculty to enhance instructional resources;
• increased start-up packages to attract high-quality faculty;
• expanded faculty and student research support;
• supplemental instructional resources to meet enrollment growth;
• market-competitive adjunct faculty salary rates;
• strengthening our undergraduate and graduate programs;
• improved student services including virtual service delivery;
• expanded student recruitment and retention efforts;
• augmented financial aid including athletics scholarships and minority scholarships;

I am grateful to all who participated in this year’s budget process, including the University Budget Committee, BOT
Finance and Investment Committee, and the university community. I am confident that the budget for fiscal years 2012 and
2013 will enable the university to continue making significant advances toward realizing its strategic goals.
