Residency criteria: Chapter 122, Section 103-17 of the Illinois Public Community College Act requires that, whenever enrollment in a program must be restricted because of space limitations, a college must give preference to district residents.  Consequently, admission to Kishwaukee College Nursing and Allied Health Professions programs for students who live outside of Kishwaukee College district #528 vary per program based on space availability and qualified applicant pools.
