Non-Resident
Non-resident students are all those whose permanent residence is outside the state of Colorado.
LCC is part of the Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) program, through which students from participating states – highlighted in the image – can receive a reduced tuition rate. Learn more about WUE in the LCC Catalog.
Students outside of WUE states and Colorado pay non-resident tuition rates. Non-resident tuition for online courses is the same regardless of WUE status.
See below for on-campus and online tuition rates for non-residents. Lamar Community College offers a non-resident pilot rate; which is currently $252.60 lower than the regular non-resident rate offered at Urban Colorado Community Colleges.
