Student Residency Classification
[Pages:2]Student Residency Classification
This information will help you to determine if you are a California resident for purposes of attending a California community college.
Residents of California are entitled to attend a community college by paying the community college
enrollment fee. See the class schedule for current fees.
Nonresidents must pay the enrollment fee plus nonresident tuition. See the class schedule for current
fees.
To qualify as a California resident, you must verify physical presence in California and intent to become a resident one-year prior to the residency determination date (the day before classes begin for a new term).
The one-year period begins when you are not only present in California, but also have demonstrated clear intent to become a resident of California.
The burden of proof is on the student, to verify both physical presence in California and intent to make California your residence.
No single document is controlling or decisive.
Please bring ALL documents necessary to establish residency to the residency office on your campus.

1. California state and federal tax returns with W-2 forms (required) 2. California automobile registration 3. California driver's license and/or California ID card 4. California voter registration 5. Military personnel: Active Duty orders and Military ID
