Sandburg provides a financial aid award to offset the Out of District/State Tuition when the following conditions are met:

Submit the Request Waiver for Out of District Tuition prior to the first day of the semester.
Submit a lease meeting the following criteria:
- Lease must be signed by BOTH the student and landlord.
- Lease must be signed at least 30 days prior to the first day of the semester.
- Lease must be for a residence within Community College District 518 in order to waive out-of-district/state tuition.
Tuition is billed in two components: In District Rate $190.00 and Out of District/State Rate $281.00/$317.00. If approved, the student will remain classified, as Out of District/State, however, a credit will be applied to cover the Out of District/State portion of charges. The student is responsible to pay all charges until appropriate documentation is received.
Based on your response, you are ineligble for this specific waiver and will not be granted an adjustment for in-district tuition. You must be moving to an address within community college district 518 to be eligible to apply for an in-district adjustment.

There are other ways that you might qualify for in-district rates.

1. If your home district community college does not offer the program that you are interested in but Sandburg does, please contact your home district college and follow their process under the CAREER consortium agreement.

2. You are employed within the district on a full-time basis but reside outside of the district. A letter from your employer can be submitted to the Financial Aid Office in B building or mailed to;
