Effective July 1, 2003, Washington State law changed the definition of "resident student". The law makes certain students, who are not permanent residents or citizens of the
United States, eligible for resident student status - and eligible to pay resident tuition rates - when they attend public colleges and universities in this state. The law does not
make these students eligible to receive need-based state or federal financial aid. To qualify for resident status, students must complete an affidavit/declaration/certification if
they are not permanent residents or citizens of the United States but have met one of the following conditions:
Condition One: (a.) Resided in Washington State for three (3) years immediately prior to receiving a high school diploma, and (b.) Completed the full senior year at a
Washington high school, and (c.) Continuously resided in the state since earning the high school diploma.
Condition Two: (a.) Completed the equivalent of a high school diploma, and (b.) Resided in Washington State for the three (3) years immediately before receiving the
equivalent of the diploma, and (c.) Continuously resided in the State since earning the equivalent of a high school diploma.
NOTE: If you meet one of the above conditions and would like to pay resident tuition rates, contact the college(s) you are applying to attend and request a copy
of the 1079 residency form.
