Separately from the request for new dollars, the board also approved the Fiscal Year 2011 budget request for the University System of Georgia (USG) that includes dollars to support new students as well as the regents' strategic thrust to expand medical education. The budget request totals $2.2 billion, a 6.8 percent increase, or $140.7 million, over the original FY 2010 base budget of $2.08 billion.
