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
California 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 attended 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:
Quarter Term Campuses
Fall - September 20
Winter- January 5
Spring - April 1
Summer - July 1

There are exceptions from nonresident tuition, including the following:
1. A student below the age of 19 whose parents were residents of California and left the state while the student, who
remained, was still a minor. When the minor reaches age 18, the exception continues until the student has resided in the
state the minimum time necessary to become a resident.
2. Minors who have been present in California with the intent of acquiring residence for more than a year before the
residence determination date and have been entirely self-supporting for that period of time. The exception continues until
the student has resided in the state the minimum time necessary to become a resident.
3. Persons below the age of 19 who have lived with and been under the continuous direct care and control of an adult or
adults, not a parent, for the two years immediately preceding the residence determination date. Such adult must have
been a California resident for the most recent year. The exception continues until the student has resided in the state the
minimum time necessary to become a resident.
4. Dependent children and spouse of a person in active military service stationed in California on the residence
determination date. There is no time limitation on this exception unless the military person transfers out of California or
retires from military service. If either of those events happen, the student's eligibility for this exception continues until
the student resides in the state the minimum time necessary to become a resident.
