Illinois Back to Work
10 Easy Steps to Enroll

We believe this program will give many people who are currently unemployed and who have little prospect for returning to work in their current situation greater job opportunities in the future.
The “Illinois Back to Work” program helps unemployed Illinois residents earn a college degree by covering remaining tuition and fees after all eligible state and federal aid is applied.

Qualified applicants must be Illinois residents 25 years of age and older who have been unemployed for at least 18 months and have not already earned a bachelor’s degree. Applicants must also be U.S. citizens or eligible non-citizens.

“…I commend them for their effort to make college affordable for Illinoisans trying to retrain and return to the workforce.”
               - U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.)
