Determination of Residence Status for Tuition Purposes
The determination of a student's residency status is determined under State Law Title 23, Article 7, Colorado Revised Statutes 1973, as amended. A student's residency is determined before or at the time of registration. If, at a later date, the student thinks that the residency status is no longer correct, he or she may petition for a change of residency status.

Petitions should be submitted to the Registrar's Office no later than one month prior to the first day of registration of the semester in which a student wishes to change. Any student who is denied residency after petitioning may appeal that decision. The appeal must be submitted to the Registrar's Office no later than two weeks after the negative decision has been sent to the student. A Residence Classification Appeals Board will meet to make the residence determination. The decision rendered by the appeals board is the final College determination.

Members of the armed forces, their spouse, and dependent children whose permanent duty station is in Colorado will be charged in-state tuition, even if the permanent duty station changes, as long as the student (armed forces member, their spouse, or dependent child) is continually enrolled in classes.

Questions regarding residence (tuition) status should be referred only to the Registrar or Department of Student Services. Opinions of others are not official or binding upon the institution. Residency of un-emancipated minors shall be that of the head of the family.
