 5        appropriated  from  the  General  Revenue  Fund  and  the
 6        Education Assistance Fund for operation  of  the  State's
 7        public universities.  For Fiscal Year     , each resident
 8        undergraduate   full-time   public   university   student

13    each  undergraduate  resident  full-time  public   university
14    student shall be determined annually by the Illinois Board of
15    Higher  Education  using  the following formula:  the average
16    total  undergraduate  instructional   costs   per   full-time
17    equivalent   undergraduate   student   at   Illinois   public
18    universities   minus   the  average  full-time  undergraduate
19    resident tuition rate at Illinois public  universities.   For
20    the  purposes  of  this  calculation,  a full time equivalent
21    undergraduate   student   shall   be   represented   by    30
22    undergraduate hours taken in a fiscal year.
23        The  Illinois Board of Higher Education shall provide the
24    calculation for the average tuition subsidy for the preceding
25    fiscal year to all public universities by  March  1  of  each
26    year.
27        Section  99.  Effective date.  This Act takes effect July
28    1, 1998.".
