State Higher Education Executive Officers Finance (SHEF)

Summary:

Every year the State Higher Education Executive Officers (SHEEO) association collects the most recent data on state appropriations and tuition revenue from state-level agencies. It produces an analytical report and makes the raw data available, along with options for adjusting the data for cost of living and regional price differences.
