The Idaho State Board of Education oversees four institutions, including three comprehensive universities and one college. Codified college and universities in Idaho include Boise State University (BSU) in Boise, Idaho State University (ISU) in Pocatello, Lewis-Clark State College (LCSC) in Lewiston, and the University of Idaho (UI) in Moscow. Funding for Systemwide Programs is included in the College and Universities appropriation and is either distributed to the institutions by the Office of the State Board of Education, or expended for projects or services that benefit all institutions.
The College and University budget appropriated by the Legislature includes the state support from the General Fund, state managed endowments, and student tuition and fees. The Legislature does not appropriate special course fees, student health insurance premiums, room and board revenues, activity fees, or federal funds from grants or student aid.
