This agreement is made by and between the New Mexico Commission on Higher Education, an “agency” of the State of New Mexico and Eastern Arizona College (and other community colleges in Arizona). The purpose of the agreement is to establish a tuition reciprocity program to enable selected students from New Mexico to enroll at designated institutions of higher education in the State of Arizona with authorization to pay Arizona resident undergraduate tuition rates, and to enable an equal number of selected students from the State of Arizona to enroll at Western New Mexico University in New Mexico with authorization to pay New Mexico resident undergraduate tuition rates.
