Residence Classification

A resident of District 505 is one who has established a permanent dwelling place (domicile) in the district and shows evidence of continuing intent to remain in the district. Individuals must prove they reside in District 505 for other than educational purposes, and if they are under 21 years of age, must prove they are independent of parents or guardians. ( See District 505 map) Evidence of the applicant’s residency should be submitted to the Office of Admissions and Records.

A student who takes exception to nonresidency ruling should pay the applicable fee and then file an Application for Change of Residence Classification, claiming a refund of the portion in excess of the resident rate. Appeals must be made within 30 calendar days (15 days for summer terms) from the date instruction begins for the term for which the rate is assessed. Requests for current semester consideration filed after the 30 calendar day period will not be accepted. All appeals must be accompanied by documentation to support the request. A refund will be provided only if a change of residence classification is granted.

Information on residence classification is available from the Office of Admissions and Records (A167).
