Office of Planning & Budgeting (OPB)
The University of Washington Office of Planning & Budgeting (OPB) supports the UW community in accomplishing its goals through the planning and allocation of financial and physical resources, and providing analysis and information services to enhance university decision-making, planning and policy formation.
Effective June 7, 2012, HB 2313 requires that Boards of Regents post tuition and fee rates 21 days in advance of adoption. Initial, proposed tuition and fee rates were presented to Regents and the public on May 3, 2012, and since that time, some graduate and professional tuition draft tuition rates have changed. Please review the latest tuition and fee table in advance of the next Regents' meeting on June 7, 2012.
The full draft budget item is available for review.
GeoSIMS is the upgrade to SIMS, the University of Washington's Space Inventory Management System web application. Using GeoSIMS, authorized users are able to view floor plans and update their department's space inventory data. The space inventory, currently tracking over 20 million square feet of interior space, is used by OPB's Capital Resources Planning group to monitor the assignment and utilization of space for the UW, as well as to provide annual reports to state and federal agencies. Contact Jeff Linn or Eric Darst for additional information.
