The Academic Common Market is an interstate agreement among southern states for sharing academic uncommon programs. Participating states are able to make arrangements for their residents who qualify for admission to enroll in specific programs in other states on an in-state tuition basis.
To enroll as an Academic Common Market student, you must: (1) be accepted for admission into a program to which your state has obtained access for its residents through the Academic Common Market. Applications for admission should be made directly to the institution offering the program, (2) obtain certification of residency from the Common Market in your home state. Contact the state coordinator for certification information.
