| Abstract | The economic contribution of nonresident college students to West Virginia's economy was examined. Comparisons were also made to the economic costs and benefits to the state of visitors to the state's parks system. The economic benefits of nonresident students on the West Virginia economy was estimated by summing the approximated effects of three major categories of direct impact: tuition and fees, visitor expenditures, and student living expenses. A multiplier was used to estimate an indirect economic impact. The same methodology was used to estimate out-of-state visitor spending with the parks systems, as well as out-of-park spending. After estimating economic costs for nonresident students and park visitors, a benefit-to-cost ratio was calculated, as well as a per student state educational subsidy (the differences between the state investment per full-time equivalent student and student charges (tuition and fees). In 1983-1984, the overall economic return to the state on its investment in nonresident student education approached three dollars for each state tax dollar invested. There was a higher benefit-to-cost ratio associated with out-of-state state parks visitors compared with that associated with nonresident students. (SW) |
