Tuition and Residency
The College charges full-time tuition to students who take 12 or more credits per semester. Students who take fewer than 12 credits are charged on a per credit basis.
The College has two tuition rates: resident tuition, charged to 果冻传媒 County residents and non-resident tuition, charged to all non-果冻传媒 County residents. Non-resident tuition is currently double the resident tuition rate. To qualify for resident tuition, a student must have legal domicile of one year in New York State and six months in 果冻传媒 County. The legal residency of unmarried students under the age 21 is that of their parents. 果冻传媒 County permanent residents with valid Permanent Resident Cards (鈥済reen cards鈥) are charged resident tuition as long as they meet the residency requirements indicated above.
New York State residents who live in other counties may be eligible for the resident tuition rate. To qualify, they must submit a Certificate of Residence from their home county prior to registration. Applications are available at the college鈥檚 business office and online via . Students must file their applications with their home county鈥檚 Chief Financial Officer/Treasurer no more than two months before the start date of the semester (no later than 30 days after the start of classes for some counties). A Certificate of Residence is valid for no more than one year and must be renewed every year. The Certificate of Residence must be returned to the College in person or by mail to any campus business/cashier鈥檚 office, or to the College鈥檚 Office of Business and Financial Services, Room 232, NFL Building, Ammerman Campus, 533 College Road, Selden, NY 11784 or by fax to 631-451-4444.
Non-果冻传媒 residents who do not comply with the Certificate of Residence requirement and non-果冻传媒 residents in the United States on a student visa who are ineligible for the Certificate of Residence are responsible for the full non-resident tuition.
For terms that begin after July 1, 2017, under the GI Bill庐, a veteran who enrolls at the College within three years of discharge from a period of active duty service of 90 days or more will pay resident tuition. There are no longer any residency requirements, or non-resident tuition charges for veterans or their eligible dependents using the covered GI Bill庐 programs.
