Residency for Tuition Purposes
Title 4, Chapter 15, Section 4
Board of Regents Handbook
Pursuant to the passage of Senate Bill 32 (Chapter 374,
Statutes of Nevada 2005
), a financially independent student must be a bona fide resident of the State
of Nevada for at least 12 months
prior to matriculation to qualify for in-state tuition. Further, for a
dependent student to qualify for in-state tuition, the student’s family
must reside in the state for at least 12 months
prior to matriculation.
In August 2004, the Board of Regents revised its residency policy to conform to
state law providing that a student must reside in the Nevada for only 6 months
in order to qualify for in-state tuition.
To accommodate students during the transition from the 6-month to 12-month
residency rule, each student who is a resident of the State of Nevada for at
least 6 months but less than 12 months before the date of matriculation for
Fall 2005 shall be deemed for tuition purposes a bona fide resident.
