Nonresidents are those who have lived in the state for less than a year before the semester begins or those who hold certain non-immigrant visas which preclude them from establishing residency. Please note: If you hold a non-immigrant visa, a permanent visa or have applied for amnesty, please bring your original passport, visa and/or I-688 form with you to the admissions and records office at the time you apply. For further information, see
residency information/reclassification.
