Chargeback program
If a program is not offered in your home community college district but is available at KCC, your home community college district will pay the out-of-district resident portion of the tuition while you are enrolled in such a program.
You can file a Declaration of Intent (chargeback) with your local community college board to receive financial support for the out-of-resident tuition by KCC.
The chargeback application must be made at least 30 days before the beginning of the semester.
A special tuition arrangement is in place for students who live in the following community college districts: Illinois Valley Community College, Joliet Junior College, Kishwaukee College, Moraine Valley Community College, Morton College, Prairie State College, South Suburban College and Waubonsee Community College. If you live in one of the above districts, you will file a cooperative agreement form with your local board rather than a chargeback application and you will be assessed KCC's district resident tuition.
KCC reserves the right to change tuition and incidental fees without notice.

($66 tuition, $8 activity fee, $227.50 out-of-state fee effective for Spring '08)
Residents of Benton, Lake and Newton counties in Indiana are charged the Illinois out-of-district resident rate for tuition rather than the out-of-state rate.
