a The reductions shown do not adjust for payment deferrals, which reflect payments to colleges that the state makes late (rather than a cut). The May Revision also provides colleges with a large non-Proposition 98 pension payment and a small settle-up payment on top of their Proposition 98 funding. The reductions shown also do not account for federal relief funds available for colleges.
FTE = full-time equivalent.
