Oakland University could see a $3.4 million boost, or 7.2 percent overall increase, in funding this year if a pending state budget plan wins approval from legislators and Gov. Jennifer Granholm. The proposal would raise Oakland\'s per-student base appropriation from the state with $3,650, which compares to $8,139 per student that the University of Michigan, Michigan State University and Wayne State University would receive. Michigan and Michigan State would see their state funding increase by 0.4 percent and Wayne State would receive 0.2 percent more.
