Budget & Finance

What if you could peer into the future and
forecast the impact of budget cuts before you make them?

We don’t exactly have a crystal ball, but we do have savvy CBO/finance experts who can create financial models to help you anticipate the impact of budget-cutting scenarios—and the timing of recovery— from a variety of perspectives before you make a single change.

Or, you can try to avoid cuts entirely by enhancing revenue and maximizing efficiencies. Either way, before you make financial decisions that could affect your college for years, call us. We’ve personally weathered decades of budget cycles and can help you come out on the winning side of your battles. Here are just a few of the ways our experts can help:

  • Cost analysis of budget cuts and their impact on recovery.
  • Customized fiscal health analysis and strategic planning.
  • Enrollment modeling for timing of downsizing and recovery.
  • Evaluation of organizational structure related to administrative and operational functions.
  • Optimize existing assets to enhance revenue and increase cash flow.
  • Advocate with legislators to change state regulations.
  • Acquire campuses at no cost or below market cost.
