Additional Charge for Nonresident Students

Illinois students who are not residents of District 505 must pay an additional charge to cover the difference between the regular tuition and state support and what it costs the college to provide instruction. The additional charge is not assessed students who obtain an approved Authorization for Partial Student Support (commonly called a chargeback) from their local community college district. A chargeback may be obtained to attend Parkland if the program of study the student wants is not available at his or her community college. To obtain chargebacks, students should apply to their local community college at least 30 days before the start of the term they expect to enroll at Parkland.

If the community college in a student’s district has a cooperative agreement with Parkland for the student’s program of study, the proper forms should be obtained from the community college in the student’s district and submitted to the Parkland Office of Admissions and Records. See a list of community colleges and cooperative agreements.

For the 2008-2009 academic year, Illinois students who are not residents of District 505 will be assessed an additional $143 per semester hour. For out-of-state students and foreign citizens, the total additional assessment is $271 per semester hour.
