Florida Residency for Tuition Purposes
A Florida “resident for tuition purposes” is a person who has, or a dependent person whose parent or legal guardian has, established and maintained legal
residency in Florida for at least twelve (12) consecutive months preceding the rst day of classes of the term for which Florida residency is sought.
• Residence in Florida must be a bona de domicile rather than for the purpose of maintaining a residence incident to enrollment at an institution of
higher education.
• To qualify as a Florida resident for tuition purposes, you must be a U.S. citizen, a foreign national in a nonimmigrant visa classication that grants you the
legal ability to establish a bona de domicile in the United States, a permanent resident alien, or legal alien granted indenite stay by the U.S. Citizenship
and Immigration Services. Other persons not meeting the twelve-month legal residence requirements may be classied as Florida residents for tuition
purposes only if they fall within one of the limited special categories authorized by the Florida Legislature pursuant to section 1009.21, Florida Statutes. All
other persons are ineligible for classication as a Florida “resident for tuition purposes.”
• Living in or attending school in Florida will not, in itself, establish legal residence. Students who depend upon out-of-state parents for support are presumed
to be legal residents of the same state as their parents.
• Residency for tuition purposes requires the establishment of legal ties to the state of Florida. Students must verify that they have broken ties to other states
if the student or, in the case for dependent students, his or her parent has moved from another state.

To Be Completed by the Student Seeking Florida Residency for Tuition Purposes
□ I qualify as a resident for tuition purposes, as defined by s. 1009.21, Florida Statutes, for the term for which this application is submitted. I understand that it
will be necessary for me to provide copies of the required documentation upon admission, in order to be considered as a Florida resident for tuition purposes.
I have read the residency information on qualifying as a dependent or independent student, and declare that: (select one of the options below):
□ I am a dependent student, as dened by s. 1009.21(1)(a), Florida Statutes, in that I am eligible to be claimed as a dependent under the federal income
tax code by the claimant below. The claimant is my “parent” as dened by s. 1009.21(1)(f), Florida Statutes, (i.e., either or both parents of the student, any
guardian of a student, or any person in a parental relationship to the student). My parent has maintained legal residence in Florida for at least the past
12 consecutive months. As dened by section 1009.21(1)(d), Florida Statutes, “‘legal resident’ or ‘resident’ means a person who has maintained his or her
residence in this state for the preceding year, has purchased a home which is occupied by him or her as his or her residence, or has established a domicile in
this state pursuant to s. 222.17.” A copy of your parent’s tax return may be requested to establish dependence.
□ I am an independent person who has maintained legal residence in Florida for at least the past 12 consecutive months. I provide 51% or more of my own
support. An independent student generally includes a person who is at least 24 years old, married, a graduate or professional student, a veteran, a member of
the armed forces, a ward of the court, or someone with legal dependents other than a spouse, pursuant to the United States Department of Education for the
purposes of federal nancial aid eligibility.There may be limited cases where a person under the age of 24 years old may qualify as an independent student.
Such students will be required to verify independence (including nancial independence.) A copy your tax return may be requested to establish independence.
