Figuring in the cost-of-attendance stipend, a full
scholarship for an out-of-state student-athlete at
UVa will exceed $57,500 in 2015-16. (It will be
about $27,500 for in-state student-athletes.)
The VAF's original annual fund goal for 2015,
established before the new NCAA measures for
the autonomy group were passed, was $16.17 mil-
lion, an increase of $770,000 from the 2014 goal.
Each year, the VAF has to plan for tuition increases
of 4-5 percent as approved by the University's
Board of Visitors each spring.
The All In For Excellence fundraising effort
includes the existing annual fund as well as sup-
port for the full cost of attendance for scholarship
student-athletes. For the 2015-16 academic year,
the implementation of the full cost of attendance
is projected to cost an additional $1.33 million.
A number of student-athletes compete as gradu-
ate students at Virginia each year. The cost-of-
attendance stipend will increase for these students,
with housing, course supplies, and cost of living
factored at a higher rate.
