3 NUMBER OF POSITIONS: TOTAL Regional Education Program P/PB 7399 University System Reserves and Other Accounting Funds PURPOSE: In cooperation with the Southern Regional Education Board, the state is enabled to secure spaces for qualified North Carolina students at out-of-state institutions in selected health science disciplines that are not offered by institutions in North Carolina or that have sustained student demand in excess of the available spaces in North Carolina institutions. The contract costs to the state for spaces are negotiated by the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB). North Carolina began the contract programs through SREB in This activity has been in continuous operation since then, with modifications in contracts from time to time to accommodate changes in student quotas and costs of spaces. Appropriations are made to the Board of Governors for meeting the cost of the contract programs and for payment of the state's share of the operating cost of SREB. The University is responsible for the administration of the out-of-state contract programs, certifying the residence of student applicants, and providing screening of candidates prior to their acceptance by the several contracting institutions. The state has reserved a total of 98 spaces for in various disciplines as follows: 84 in optometry at the University of Alabama in Birmingham, Southern College of Optometry, the University of Houston, and Pennsylvania College of Optometry; and seven spaces in dentistry and seven spaces in medicine at Meharry Medical College. All programs, except the program at Pennsylvania College of Optometry, are operated in cooperation with SREB. Through campus visitations, direct communications and interviews, efforts are made to impress upon the students the desire of the state to have them return to North Carolina for practice upon completion of their courses of study.
