Qualifying for the Community College Resident Tuition Rate
This section describes the requirements necessary for consideration as a resident student and the documentation necessary to prove residency.
Residency Verification Process - A community college student may qualify for the resident tuition rate if he or she meets both of the following considerations:
a. Continuously maintained his or her principal place of abode in the State of New York for a period of twelve consecutive months immediately preceding the first day of classes. (A student who has attended a high school in New York City or State for the two semesters immediately prior to the first day of classes satisfies this condition).
b. Students who are disabled as defined by the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) and are attending part-time (at least 3 academic credits per semester or the equivalent) can be certified for part-time TAP award for any approved term.
c. Continuously maintained his or her principal place of abode in the City of New York for at least the last six months immediately preceding the first day of classes. (A student who has attended a high school in New York City in the semester immediately prior to the first day of classes satisfies this condition).
Special Situation
County charge backs at community colleges:
Community colleges require as a condition for registration, that every New York State resident who resides outside of New York City present a certificate of residence issued no earlier than two months prior to the first day of classes and no later than 30 days after the start of the semester in question. The certificate would be brought to the Business office for processing and adjustment. The certificate is valid for a period of one year. In the event the county of residence declines to issue the certificate on the basis that the student is not a county resident, the student may appeal to the New York Secretary of State.
Students verifying residency must complete the City University Residency Form. The form is distributed at the Admissions & Recruitment Office, B-Building Room 103. No Residency Form will be accepted after the end of the semester for which the student is applying for a determination.
A full-time undergraduate student is one who is enrolled for 12 credits, or billable equivalent, or more. Student taking in excess of 18 billable units will be charge at the per unit rate for each additional units.
A part-time student is one who is enrolled for fewer than 12 credits or billable equivalent.
The tuition fee rate to be charged shall be determined by a student's status as a full-time or part-time student and his or her residency and degree status.
The schedule of tuition fees shall apply to all scheduled sessions, regardless of duration, subject to such special tuition fee rates as may be established by the Board.
A child of a member of the permanent staff of the Board, or a child of a deceased or retired member of such staff, who has served for more than five years on an annual salary, or a child of an employee of the City of New York or of a city agency who is required to live outside the City of New York in the performance of official duties, shall be charged resident rates.
The resident rate shall be applicable to a student of another college or university that grants exchange resident rates to a student of a college within The City University of New York. Evidence of satisfactory educational qualifications must be presented and the approval of the President of such college within the City University is required.
