State Residency Requirements
A Certificate of Residence verifies that you have been a New York State resident for one year prior to registration or the start of the semester. The certificate also states your county of residence for the past six months.
- Students registering without a Certificate of Residence will be charged Out-Of-State tuition.
- Certificates are valid when issued within 60 days prior to the start of classes and are valid for one year from the date of issue. Updated Certificates are required each year.
- If you are taking credit-bearing courses or certain job training courses, it is required by NY state law that you obtain a Certificate of Residence.
