New Corning Community College president outlines programs; county chargeback rate set at $3,912 per FTE
Summary
Dr. Terrence Finley, newly appointed president of Corning Community College, presented college programs, a streamlined residency certification process for ACE students and said the 2025–26 chargeback rate will be $3,912 per FTE (a 2.9% increase).
Dr. Terrence Finley, who said he had been appointed 45 days earlier, thanked the Legislature for county support and introduced administrator Kim Frock before reviewing Corning Community College programs and partnerships.
Finley described efforts to streamline the certificate-of-residency process for ACE students by allowing school districts to verify addresses, saying the change "will save a great deal of staff time for all agencies." He also reported the college’s annual chargeback rate for 2025–2026 will be $3,912 per full-time-equivalent (30-credit) student, reflecting a 2.9 percent increase based on the lower January 2025 CPI or statutory maximums.
Finley and staff highlighted participation in SUNY Reconnect and other programs intended to adapt to changing educational needs; he thanked the Legislature for past and anticipated support.
