Following the positive student vote in March 2019 and approval by the UM System Board of Curators, the fee goes into effect for Fall 2019.
We will have as many of the changes as possible in place for the first semester students pay the fee, to ensure that students directly benefit from any fees they pay while UMKC students. The first year you'll see primarily longer hours, 24/7 chat, and better security - as the fee increases, we get more information, and there is time to plan and implement, you'll start to see more changes to spaces and services.
