Definitions and Classifications
Continuing students
To be classified as a continuing student, a student must have enrolled at a CUNY institution prior to June 1, 1992. This classification also includes students who were in attendance prior to June 1, 1992, and readmitted within a six-year period prior to the start of the semester.
New York State residency requirements
To be classified as a New York State resident, an applicant must be a citizen or permanent resident of the United States and must have resided in the state of New York for the twelve-month period preceding the first day of classes of the term in which the applicant enrolls. Certain other visa categories may qualify for in-state tuition.
Students classified by the office of admissions as out-of-state residents must pay tuition as nonresident students. They may apply to have their status changed to New York State resident by filing a City University residence form in the Office of the Registrar, 1108 Boylan Hall. New students should consult with the Admissions Information Center, 1103 James Hall. Students who were admitted to the college with an immigration permanent resident card must submit the card prior to registration. Additional information and requirements are contained in the City University residency form.
Students must provide all documents proving residency status no later than the end of the second week of classes of the semester in which that status would take effect. Documentation provided after that time will delay the new residency status until the following semester.
An applicant for residency who does not provide the registrar with the required information or documentation may be classified as an out-of-state resident. Students denied resident status by the registrar may appeal the decision within ten days of the date of notification.
Full-time students
Matriculated students who are enrolled for 12 or more credits or the equivalent a term are classified as full-time students.
Part-time students
Students who are enrolled for fewer than 12 credits or the equivalent a term are classified as part-time students.
All courses taken by part-time students are billed on a per-credit basis except compensatory, developmental, and remedial courses, which are billed on a contact-hour basis. The Schedule of Classes published each term lists these courses.
The tuition charged part-time students on a per-credit basis in any one term may not exceed the term rate for full-time students.

Tuition for Undergraduate Students
Undergraduate students who take graduate courses as nondegree students and who receive graduate credit for those courses must pay the applicable graduate tuition. No undergraduate student is required to pay more than the maximum tuition (at applicable residency or degree rates), regardless of the mix of undergraduate and graduate courses taken, as long as graduate courses are used toward the undergraduate degree. If the courses are used toward a graduate degree, the student must be rebilled at the graduate tuition rate. Credit for an undergraduate or graduate course may be applied toward either an undergraduate degree or a graduate degree but not toward both.
