Cooperative Education Agreement
What is a cooperative agreement? Certain Associate in Applied Science degree and certificate programs may not be available at Highland Community College. A Cooperative Education Agreement is an agreement between Highland Community College and approximately 47 other Illinois community colleges for an approved resident of one district to enroll in a specified occupational program at a participating school and be required to pay only the in-district tuition rate established by the college attended. Students complete all specialized courses at the cooperative college. NOTE: Some colleges participating in the Cooperative Agreement have established deadline for application to certain programs. HCC is not responsible for out-of-district costs if a deadline is not met by a student. This agreement does not cover courses under 100-level, general education courses or pre-requisites. These courses must be taken at Highland Community College. In addition, individual courses are not applicable for Cooperative Agreements unless approved from the Director of Enrollment and Records.
