Insurance Requirement. Effective August 1,1995, as a condition of receiving an I-20 or IAP-66 form, all F-1 and J-1 visa appli-cants
must agree to obtain and maintain health insurance as a condition of registration and continued enrollment in the Califor-nia
State University. Such insurance must be in amounts as specified by the United States Information Agency (USIA) and NAF-SA:

these criteria. Further information may be obtained from the International Student Services and Programs Office at 278.2782
Determination of Residency for Tuition Purposes
University requirements for establishing residency for tuition purposes are independent from those of other types of residency,
such as for tax purposes, or other state or institutional residency. These regulations were promulgated not to determine whether
a student is a resident or nonresident of California, but rather to determine whether a student should pay University fees on an
in-state or out-of- state basis. A resident for tuition purposes is someone who meets the requirements set forth in the Uniform
Student Residency Requirements. These laws governing residency for tuition purposes at the California State University are
California Education Code sections 68000-68085, 68120-68133, and 89705-89707.5, and California Code of Regulations, Title
5, Subchapter 5, Article 4, sections 41900- 41916. Residency material can be viewed on the internet by accessing the website at
www.calstate.edu/GC/resources.shtml.
Each campus’ Admissions and Records Office is responsible for determining the residency status of all new and returning
students based on the Application for Admission, Residency Questionnaire, Reclassification Request Form, and, as necessary,
other evidence furnished by the student. A student who fails to submit adequate information to establish eligibility for resident
classification will be classified as a nonresident.
Generally, establishing California residency for tuition purposes requires a combination of physical presence and intent to remain
indefinitely. An adult who, at least 366 days prior to the residency determination date for the term in which enrollment is contem-plated,
can demonstrate both physical presence in the state combined with evidence of intent to remain in California indefinitely
may establish California residency for tuition purposes. A minor normally derives residency from the parent(s) they reside with or
most recently resided with.
Evidence demonstrating intent may vary from case to case but will include, and is not limited to, the absence of residential ties
to any other state, California voter registration and voting in California elections, maintaining California vehicle registration and
driver’s license, maintaining active California bank accounts, filing California income tax returns and listing a California address
on federal tax returns, owning residential property or occupying or renting a residence where permanent belongings are kept,
maintaining active memberships in California professional or social organizations, and maintaining a permanent military address
and home of record in California.
Nonresident students seeking reclassification are required to complete a supplemental questionnaire that includes questions
concerning their financial independence. Financial independence is required, in addition to physical presence and intent, to be
eligible for reclassification. Financial independence is established if in the calendar year the reclassification application is made
and in any of the three calendar years preceding the reclassification application the student:
• has not and will not be claimed as an exemption for state and federal tax purposes by his/her parent;
• has not and will not receive more than seven hundred and fifty dollars ($750) per year in financial assistance from his/her
parent; and
• has not lived and will not live longer than six (6) weeks in the home of his/her parent.
A nonresident student who has been appointed as a graduate student teaching assistant, a graduate student research assistant,
or a graduate student teaching associate on any CSU campus and is employed on a 0.49 or more time basis is exempt from the
financial independence requirement.
Non-citizens establish residency in the same manner as citizens, unless precluded by the Immigration and Nationality Act from
establishing domicile in the United States.
Exceptions to the general residency requirements are contained in California Education Code sections 68070-68085 and Cali-fornia
Code of Regulations, Title 5, Subchapter 5, Article 4, sections 41906- 41906.6, 41910 and include, but are not limited to,
members of the military and their dependents, certain credentialed employees of school districts and most students who have at-tended
three or more years of high school (grades 9-12) in California and graduated from a California high school or attained the
equivalent of graduation. Whether an exception applies to a particular student can only be determined after the submission of
an application for admission and, as necessary, additional supporting documentation. Because neither campus nor Chancellor’s
Office staff may give advice on the application of these laws, applicants are strongly urged to review the material for themselves
and consult with a legal adviser.
Residency determination dates are set each term. They are as follows:
