allocated in the amount of general state financial aid each community
college received in the base year. If the appropriation is less than
the total of the amount of general state financial aid each community
college received in the base year, the moneys shall be allocated in
the same proportion as the allocation of general state financial aid
each community college received in the base year.
(2) Marginal cost adjustment. After the base funding has
been allocated, each community college shall be allocated up to an
additional two percent of its base funding allocation. The community
college's allocation shall be in the same proportion as the
allocation of general state financial aid each community college
received in the base year.

two percent over the base funding allocation, an amount up to an
additional one percent of the base funding allocation shall be
distributed based upon each community college's proportional share of

colleges that have eligible growth support. The allocation shall be
based upon the proportional share that each community college's
eligible growth support bears to the total growth support amount.
Once the moneys allocated under this subparagraph division equal the
total growth support amount, the remaining moneys allocated under
this subparagraph shall be allocated as provided in subparagraph
division (a).
(5) Additional three-year rolling average FTEE allocation.
If the increase in total state general aid exceeds four percent over
the base funding allocation, all remaining moneys shall be

each community college's proportional share of the three-year rolling
average full-time equivalent enrollments for all community colleges.
(b) Sixty percent of the moneys shall be allocated to community
colleges that have eligible growth support. The allocation shall be
based upon the proportional share that each community college's
eligible growth support bears to the total growth support amount.
Once the moneys allocated under this subparagraph division equal the
total growth support amount, the remaining moneys allocated under
this subparagraph shall be allocated as provided in subparagraph
division (a).

general aid exceeds four percent over the base funding allocation, an
amount up to the inflation adjustment amount shall be distributed to
each community college in the same proportion as the allocation of
general state financial aid each community college received in the
base year.

based upon the proportional share that each community college's
eligible growth support bears to the total growth support amount.
Once the moneys allocated under this subparagraph division equal the
total growth support amount, the remaining moneys allocated under
this subparagraph shall be allocated as provided in subparagraph
division (a).
(5) Inflation adjustment. If the increase in total state
general aid exceeds four percent over the base funding allocation, an
amount up to the inflation adjustment amount shall be distributed to
each community college in the same proportion as the allocation of
general state financial aid each community college received in the
base year.
(6) Additional three-year rolling average FTEE allocation.
If there are remaining moneys to be distributed under this paragraph
after distributing moneys under subparagraph (5), all remaining
moneys shall be distributed based upon each community college's
proportional share of the three-year rolling average full-time
equivalent enrollments for all community colleges.
c. If the inflation rate equals or exceeds four percent:
(1) Base funding allocation. The moneys shall first be
allocated in the amount of general state financial aid each community
college received in the base year. If the appropriation is less than
the total of the amount of general state financial aid each community
college received in the base year, the moneys shall be allocated in
the same proportion as the allocation of general state financial aid
each community college received in the base year.
(2) Marginal cost adjustment. After the base funding has
been allocated, each community college shall be allocated up to an
additional two percent of its base funding allocation. The community
college's allocation shall be in the same proportion as the
allocation of general state financial aid each community college
received in the base year.
(3) Three-year rolling average of full-time equivalent
enrollment. If the increase in the total state general aid exceeds
two percent over the base funding allocation, an amount up to an
additional one percent of the base funding allocation shall be
distributed based upon each community college's proportional share of
the three-year rolling average full-time equivalent enrollments for
all community colleges.
(4) Inflation adjustment. If the increase in total state
general aid exceeds three percent over the base funding allocation,
an amount up to the inflation adjustment amount shall be distributed
to each community college in the same proportion as the allocation of
general state financial aid each community college received in the
base year.
(5) Extraordinary growth adjustment. If there are remaining
moneys to be distributed under this paragraph after distributing
moneys under subparagraph (4), an amount up to an additional one
percent of the base funding allocation shall be based as follows:
(a) Forty percent of the moneys shall be allocated based upon
each community college's proportional share of the three-year rolling
average full-time equivalent enrollments for all community colleges.
(b) Sixty percent of the moneys shall be allocated to community
colleges that have eligible growth support. The allocation shall be
based upon the proportional share that each community college's
eligible growth support bears to the total growth support amount.
Once the moneys allocated under this subparagraph division equal the
total growth support amount, the remaining moneys allocated under
this subparagraph shall be allocated as provided in subparagraph
division (a).
(6) Additional three-year rolling average FTEE allocation.
If there are remaining moneys to be distributed under this paragraph
after distributing moneys under subparagraph (5), all remaining
moneys shall be distributed based upon each community college's
proportional share of the three-year rolling average full-time
equivalent enrollments for all community colleges.
4. Information supplied by colleges and adoption of rules.a. Each community college shall provide information in the
manner and form as determined by the department. If a community
college fails to provide the information as requested, the department
shall estimate the full-time equivalent enrollment of that college.
b. Each community college shall complete and submit an annual
student enrollment audit to the department. Adjustments to community
college state general aid allocations shall be made based on student
enrollment audit outcomes.
c. The department shall adopt rules under chapter 17A as
necessary for the allocation of general state financial aid.
