New York State Residency
For the purposes of determining tuition charges, a student is considered a resident of the State of New York if the student has a 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 for the semester with respect to which the residency determination is made. Such a student must state an intention to live permanently and maintain a principal place of abode in New York State. Residence in a dormitory, hotel, or other temporary housing facility does not in itself establish New York State residency. The College may require appropriate documentation to verify residency status.
