Residency for Tuition Billing Purposes

A student may qualify for the resident tuition rate if he/she continuously maintained his/her principal place of abode in the State of New York for a period of at least 12 consecutive months immediately preceding the first day of classes. If a student has attended a high school in New York City or State for the two semesters immediately prior to the first day of classes, the student qualifies for the resident rate.
