<p>I am currently on out of state tuition, but will be filling for in state in the upcoming weeks. I am wondering what other aid I may be eligble for once I get in state residency? </p>
<p>Currently i get 1800 PELL and 4k from the SMART Grant... then the max sub and unsub loans. </p>
<p>Anyone know if with that PELL eligiblity there are some state programs I would be eligble for?</p>
<p>I have applied for TAP B4 but i have a CA drivers liscence (which expires this month and is not renewed) - but they did not approve me based on me having the liscense.</p>
<p>Are you a dependent or an independent student? If you are a dependent student, you will be a resident where your parents reside no matter how long you have been in NYC and will not be eligible for TAP</p>

<p>A. City University of New York Residency Requirements and Guidelines</p>
<p>In order to qualify for the University’s resident tuition rate (refer to Section III for details regarding the community college, senior college and graduate tuition rates), a student must first meet the University’s qualifications for residency. These qualifications vary from community to senior colleges, due in large part to State law and the University’s funding mechanisms. </p>
<p>In addition to the requirements and guidelines indicated below, there are other circumstances which may affect one’s tuition residency status. These other circumstances are discussed in subsequent portions of this section.
<p>In addition, a student must show that he or she has established New York as his/her domicile, which means that the student has a bona fide intention of living in New York permanently.</p>
<p>In any case, and regardless of any other statements contained in this manual, a student must first document legal residence prior to establishing another address (including a post office box) as a mailing address. Further details for documenting residency are included in the Subsection “H” entitled “Guidelines for Completing Part C of the City University Residency Form”.</p>
<p>Generally, a dependent student’s state of residency is considered the same as that of his or her custodial parent(s) or legal guardian(s). The legal residence of a dependent student whose parents are divorced, separated, or otherwise living apart will be considered New York State if the student resides for 12 months with the parent who is a New York State resident. </p>
<p>**</p>
<p>A student claiming independence from his/her parent(s) or legal guardian(s) residing out-of-state must present evidence of both financial independence and a legal residence in this State in order to be designated a New York State resident for tuition purposes. </p>
<p>Proof of financial independence must be documented. Factors taken into account in determining financial independence include, but are not limited to: whether the student is taken as a dependent on parents’ or guardians’ federal and state income tax returns; whether the student is employed and the amount the student earned relative to expenses; the extent of financial support received by the student from parents or guardians; and other sources of student income.</p>
<p>Students aged 24 and older are considered independent and do not have to document financial independence from their parents.**</p>

<p>SUNY Requirements</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Eligibility Basics</p>
<p>At SUNY’s State-operated campuses (University Centers, University Colleges, and Technology Colleges), students are generally considered New York State residents if they have established their domicile in New York State for at least twelve months prior to the last day of the registration period of a particular term.</p>
<p>1.Generally, individuals who have maintained their domicile in New York for a period of fewer than twelve months prior to the end of registration are presumed to be out-of-state residents and are not eligible for the resident tuition rate.</p>
<p>2.Individuals who are financially dependent and whose custodial parent(s) lives in a state other than New York are generally not eligible for the resident tuition rate. However, students of divorced or legally separated parents may acquire a New York State domicile if the custodial parent is a New York State resident or if the student resides with a non-custodial parent who is a New York State resident and the student intends to continue to reside with that parent throughout their attendance at SUNY. </p>
<p>3.Individuals do not meet the twelve-month residency requirement if domiciled in New York State primarily to attend college. </p>
