c Reflects CSAC estimates. The May Revision assumes $48.8 million in additional costs above CSAC estimates. This difference is due to the administration anticipating that more students will return to college campuses in 2022-23 than CSAC assumes. The administration has not specified how this $48.8 million would be distributed across the segments. This adjustment brings total May Revision spending to $2,462.6 million and brings the change from Governor's budget to -$328.9 million (-12 percent).
