Whoops: Non-Californians at UC get summer subsidy

A taxpayer subsidy that out-of-state students enrolled in the University of California system have been receiving for years is under scrutiny as the schools search for extra revenue.

During the regular school year, nonresidents pay up to three times as much as students from California, bringing the universities a few hundred million dollars. But partly due to measures taken to boost summer enrollment, they are spared from paying higher fees for summer classes...

Unlike the UC campuses, the California State University system doesn't give nonresidents a break. They pay an extra $372 per unit year-round.
