GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR CERTIFICATE OF RESIDENCE

FOR ALL COUNTIES OTHER THAN CAYUGA

A Certificate of Residence is required for New York State residents who do not reside in Cayuga County. In the absence of a Certificate, the out-of-state tuition rate is charged. All out-of-state and out-of-country residents are charged double-tuition.

A Certificates of Residence are issued by your County Treasurer or Chief Fiscal Officer, not by the College. It is the student’s responsibility to submit the affidavit/application (choose the appropriate link below) and any necessary documentation to the appropriate County Office in the time frame required by that county. Your Certificate of Residence must be signed by your County Treasurer and dated within 60 days before the first day of classes. The College must receive the Certificate of Residence no later than 14 days following the first class.
