Determining Residency Status of Independent Students

  • An Independent Student meets the Georgia residency requirements, for purposes of this procedure and the related policies, if he or she has established and maintained domicile in the State of Georgia for at least 12 consecutive months immediately preceding the first day of classes of the school term for which the student is seeking In-State Tuition.
  • It is presumed that no Independent Student shall have gained or acquired Georgia residency, for purposes of this procedure and the related policies, while attending a TCSG college without clear evidence of having established a domicile in the State of Georgia for purposes other than attending a TCSG college.
