The private colleges and universities in New York State receive more public funds from the state than do schools in any other state. The private institutions apply admission restrictions and tuition charges that effectively deny open access to the state's taxpayers. Private tuition and fees in the state have risen at the same level as the national average. Bundy aid and the Tuition Assistance Program are used by the private sector to increase tuition revenues and expenditures, and to reduce scholarships to poorer students and increase them for more affluent students. The public investment in the private sector is uneconomical since the private sector is less cost-effective than the public institutions. During the past five years, the proportion of state aid to private institutions has increased as the proportion of state aid to public institutions has decreased. Correspondingly, private enrollments have increased and public enrollments have decreased. (SW)
