根据校董会政策4.3.4、所有申请者均被录取 for admission or readmission to the college for Fall 2011 or any academic semester thereafter, and who seek to be classified as in-state for tuition purposes, will be required to provide validation of residency and 合法的存在 in both the State 格鲁吉亚和美国的关系.

十大彩票平台 will strive to make this process clear by publicizing to all applicants through letter, website (check your status) and e-mails to students requesting in-state tuition that they must confirm their Georgia residency status on their applications and provide proof of legal presence in the United States.

Students in the below categories whose 合法的存在 has been verified by the agency indicated, are considered lawfully present in Georgia and the United States:

    • After the filing of Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the student is deemed financial aid eligible by the US Department of Education Office of Federal Student Aid; or
    • F, J or M Visa verified by Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVIS); or
    • Naturalized citizen, immigrant or non-immigrant status verified through Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements Program (SAVE), or through submission of the documentation 下面所提到的.

Students must provide a copy of one of the following documents to verify 合法的存在:

    • 认证U.S. Birth Certificate showing that the student was born in the U.S. or a U.年代的领土. A photocopy provided by the student 是不可接受的.
    • A U.S. Certificate of Naturalization (USCIS form N-550 or N-570).
    • A U.S. Certificate of Citizenship (USCIS form N-560 or N-561).
    • A U.S. Certification of Report of Birth of a US Citizen born abroad issued by the United States Department of State (Form FS-1350) or a Consular Report of Birth Abroad (FS-240).
    • A电流U.S. 护照.
    • A current Driver's License issued by the State of Georgia after January 1, 2008. A limited term license/ID or a license/ID issued for a period of less than two years 是不可接受的.
    • A current valid Permanent Resident Card (USCIS form I-151 or I-551)
    • A current military ID (service member only, not dependent) Documented using the Confirmation of Review of 军事 IS Worksheet- A photocopy 是不可接受的.

Documentation must be valid (unexpired) at the time of the 合法的存在 review in order to satisfy the verification requirement based on documentation. 为了 for the student’s 合法的存在 to be verified based on eligibility for federal student aid, the student must be eligible for the aid the term the student is applying 州内学费. Applications processed by the 招生 or Records Office will be reviewed with emphasis on those students requesting in-state tuition and their positive responses to Georgia residency questions. 我们的政策规定这些 students will be initially coded as in-state awaiting proof of their U.S. 合法的存在. We agree that all students Fall 2011 and thereafter will have the LAWP code included in their Banner Checklist and the LP code added to SOAHOLD to prevent them from registering or releasing a transcript until they establish U.S. 合法的存在. 我们相信 the majority (80-90%) of our students will satisfy this requirement through their FAFSA application since SAVE is checking their U.S. 合法居留身份的一部分 这个过程. For the remaining 10-20%, those students may use one of the other documents listed above to satisfy their in-state tuition requirement. 每个各自的 department will manually enter the appropriate document code on the checklist and 在等待中设置一个结束日期.

Our Database Administrator created a script that runs 9 a.m. 每天检查 信息 from the FAFSA, if one was filed, and will automatically update the checklist 编写代码,并为保持设置结束日期. In some cases, the student must provide additional 信息. Conversely, if a new application is processed and no FAFSA has been filed yet, the script will add the LAWP code to the checklist and the LP code to SOAHOLD.

Students at the time of registration on orientation days or other registration days, who have satisfied the Georgia residency requirement (but not provided proof of the U.S. 合法的存在) will have their status changed to non-resident (update SAAADMS, SGASTDN), place an end date on the LP hold, and Opt-Out added to the LAWP checklist code. The attribute code UDOC will be added so that they are listed as undocumented.

Students will have until the last official day of schedule adjustment to provide their U的证明.S. 合法存在或完成 选择退出核实合法居留表格.

All students who failed to prove their 合法的存在 after that date will be assessed 本学期的州外学费. 如果他们提供合法存在的证据 before the next semester’s registration period and they have already proved their Georgia residency status, they may be changed to in-state.
