Camosun quarterly budget update<\/strong><\/p>\n

On November 4, Camosun College announced that as of September 30, six months into its fiscal year, it was in a deficit position. While a deficit position halfway through the fiscal year isn\u2019t unusual, the deficit is currently $2.2 million higher than anticipated, due to reduced revenues and spending on higher salaries and benefits. Revenue for the college is $1.6 million less than what was budgeted, mainly due to a reduction in international-student enrolment numbers.
