Budget Office

The campus Budget Office is responsible for:

  • strategic appropriation of New York State tax support
  • auxiliary agency program/grant resources for relevant state initiatives
  • and campus tuition and fee revenue.

Main charges include development of operating budgets for funds within the academic enterprise portfolio (revenue offset, income fund reimbursable (IFR), and State University of New York Tuition Reimbursable account (SUTRA)), as well as composition of both operating and capital plans for dormitory operations; cumulatively managing operating resources in excess of $110M. Secondary charges of the office include maintenance of allocation and expenditure activity, as well as routine reconciliatory audits for all main budget objects. These efforts fuel an overarching commitment to sound Financial Reporting which bolsters resource management to enrich student experience and success.

In correlation with budget management, the Budget office is a task approver for the processing of interview exchange personnel forms including request-to-fill position forms, undergraduate student employment action justification forms, and unclassified appointment forms.

Special Considerations

A positive expense is a charge, synonymous with debit. A negative expense is a credit. A positive allocation increases spending limits whereas a negative allocation reduces spending limits.

Budget User Resources

Business Intelligence: An account management resource tool providing budget detail including revenue/cash balances, allocation, and expenditure activity. The Finance office provides training for administrative support staff that manage departmental fiscal resources.
