BUTLER TWP — Without a state budget, Butler County Community College predicts that it can remain operational until late May or early June without additional funds.

The college received $10.8 million in revenue in January and February, Jim Hrabosky, vice president for administration and finance, told the college trustees Wednesday.

About $6 million of that came from student fees and tuition for the spring semester, he said.

In addition, the college received about $3.8 million from the state in early January when Gov. Tom Wolf released emergency funds to schools, counties and social service programs.

Part of that $3.8 million was used immediately to repay a line of credit the college took out in December 2015.

With origination fees and interest, the college had to pay an additional $10,000, Hrabosky said, but those lines of credit have been closed.

“As of today, things are in decent shape,” Hrabosky said. “By late May or June, we’ll be back in the same boat we were in in December.”

Hrabosky said that college expenses are being monitored, with a 1 percent increase in expenses from last year.

However, the college has seen increases in out-of-county enrollment this year, providing BC3 with additional revenue because out-of-county students pay higher tuition than do Butler County residents. A county resident pays $1,500 per semester, not including fees, as a full-time student while any other full-time student pays $3,000 per semester.

The college also is seeing an increase of 40 percent for summer students.
