Certificate of Residence
A student from New York State is required to submit a Certificate of Residence to the Utica or Rome Business Office, verifying permanent, home address. Failure to submit a Certificate will result in a double tuition charge on the billing statement.
In some cases a student who has lived in more than one county during the 6 months immediately preceding the date the Certificate is dated/certified must submit Certificates from each of those counties.
