UA Cossatot and the City of De Queen recently partnered to provide City of De Queen employees and children discounted tuition rates while attending UA Cossatot.

The tuition discount, which does not apply to specific program fees, gives full-time City of De Queen Employees a 50% tuition discount while children of full-time City of De Queen employees receive a 25% tuition discount. Eligible recipients must complete the course(s) authorized with a grade of "C" or better.

UA Cossatot and the City of De Queen established a procedure for participation, a memorandum of agreement between UA Cossatot and the City of De Queen, and a memorandum of understanding on financial awards.

UA Cossatot Chancellor Dr. Steve Cole said, “Our community is only as good as the collaborations within it. It is amazing how much a community prospers when we are able to share resources with each other. De Queen Mayor Jeff Brown and the De Queen City Council identified a way to reward employees and, at the same time, give them away to better themselves and their families. UA Cossatot was honored to assist in these efforts.”
