Restructuring Act
In 2005, the Virginia State Senate and House of Delegates passed landmark bills that granted Virginia's public colleges and universities greater operational and administrative autonomy in exchange for a renewed pledge to their public missions. Under this legislation, universities that demonstrate compliance with certain provisions would be eligible for the authority to manage various business practices with greater autonomy and be exempt from state regulatory procedures. Key among these conditions is that each institution is required to develop six-year financial, academic, and enrollment plans that outline tuition and fee estimates as well as enrollment projections, to develop detailed plans for meeting statewide objectives, and to accept number of accountability measures, including meeting benchmarks related to accessibility and affordability. Financial incentives are available to schools which meet state objectives.
Three levels of autonomy are available to all public institutions of higher education, with the level of autonomy depending on each institution's financial strength and ability to manage day to-day operations.
