\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThe recently passed Pennsylvania state budget includes a $10 million performance-based funding pool for Penn State, Temple University, and the University of Pittsburgh, aimed at supporting higher education across the Commonwealth. Funding distributionThe final shares of the funding will be determined by metrics such as in-state enrollment, graduation rates, high-demand degrees, and affordability. Penn State expects to receive over $4 million from this pool, bringing its total education appropriation to $246 million. Penn State President Neeli Bendapudi said, “The investment recognizes the essential role higher education plays in strengthening the Commonwealth.” The University of Pittsburgh anticipates receiving approximately $5.5 million from the funding pool. Broader contextPenn State, Pitt, and Temple operate under a public-private partnership model. However, Lincoln University in Chester County, which also fits this model, does not appear to be included in this funding pool. The $10 million allocation is smaller than the $30 million pool initially proposed by Governor Josh Shapiro.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
