The main objective of this study was to determine the similarities and differences of budget management n the US universities and compare them to Georgian universities. In Georgia, all public universities became non-profit legal entities at the end of 2011, which means that their main state revenue streams come from student tuition and salaries for research institute personnel. In the US, state funding has decreased at most institutions. The study examines one case of a US university where funding has decreased significantly, and one case where funding has risen slightly over the past decade.
