Tuition and Fees Policy

Tuition and fees are public monies within the jurisdiction and responsibility of the Maricopa Community Colleges Governing Board under the laws and regulations of the state of Arizona and must be administered by the Governing Board. The Governing Board reserves the right to change tuition and fee charges when necessary without notice.

All students are classified for tuition purposes under one of the
following residency classifications:

• Maricopa County resident
• Out-of-County resident
• Out-of-State resident (including F-1 non-immigrant students)
• Unclassified, Out-of-County, Out-of-State (1-6 credit hours
  system-wide)

Guidelines used to determine residency for tuition purposes are a combination of statutory law (A.R.S. §15-1801 et. sec.) and regulations of the Maricopa Community Colleges Governing Board. All of the Maricopa Community Colleges are subject to the above statutes and regulations. Students who have questions about their residency should contact the Office of Admissions and Records for clarification.
Prop 300- New state law requirements for receiving in-state residency status.

Students attending more than one Maricopa Community College will be assessed fees for their enrollment at each of the Maricopa Community Colleges/Centers. (Students who are considered to be out-of-state residents for tuition and fees purposes should refer to the Concurrent Enrollment in Arizona Public Institutions of Higher Education policy under the Registration section of the College Catalog.)

All tuition, fees, assessments and deposits must be paid at the time of registration or by the specified deadline date and in accordance with the fee schedule approved by the Maricopa Community Colleges Governing Board. Enrollment is not complete until tuition and fees are paid.
