Monroe County Residents
Students who have been permanent residents of Monroe County for at least 6 months prior to the semester (and New York State for at least 1 year prior) need to fill out the Monroe County Certificate of Residence Affidavit and submit it directly to the Student Accounts Office.
Please note that you may be required to provide proof of your permanent residence in Monroe County.
When to Get Your Certificate of Residence
If you are a permanent resident of Monroe County you must complete and submit your Certificate of Residence affidavit no later than 30 days after the start of the semester.
The double tuition charge will remain on your account until you prove your Monroe County residency, and failure to do so will result in you being responsible for payment of the double (non-resident) charge.
