1 (b) Tuition and out-of-state fees for upper-division
2 courses must reflect the fact that the community college has a
3 less expensive cost structure than that of a state university.
4 Therefore, the board of trustees shall establish tuition and
5 out-of-state fees for upper-division courses pursuant to
6 approved baccalaureate programs and consistent with law and
7 proviso language in the General Appropriations Act; however,
8 the board of trustees may not vary tuition and out-of-state
9 fees as provided in subsection (4). Identical fees shall be
10 required for all community college resident students within a
11 college who take a specific course, regardless of the program
12 in which they are enrolled.
