Non-Monroe County Residents
Students who attend a SUNY community college outside of their home county must obtain a Certificate of Residence from their home county for the college to remove the double tuition (non-resident) charge from their bill.
In order to qualify for the in-state tuition rate you must obtain and submit to Monroe Community College a valid Certificate of Residence once a year.
Failure to obtain a Certificate of Residence will result in you being responsible for payment of the double tuition (non-resident) charge.
When to Get Your Certificate of Residence
Certificates cannot be dated more than 2 months prior to the date you register for classes. They must be submitted to the Student Accounts Office no later than 30 days after the start of the semester. We encourage you to contact your County Treasurer’s Office regarding obtaining the certificate.
Where Do You Go to Get Your Certificate of Residence
You obtain a Certificate of Residence from the county of your permanent residence by providing proof of residency to your County Treasurer’s Office. The application can be submitted to them electronically, in person, or via mail, but we encourage you to contact your county to see what type(s) of proof they require.
