TC3  Certificate of Residency Website 

All students are initially charged out-of-state tuition when they register for classes with TC3. The Certificate of Residence proves you are a New York state resident and is required to qualify for reduced in-state tuition to be paid out by your home county.

Application Guidelines

If you are a dependent student, you must apply in the county in which your parents reside. You can apply for the certificate of residence between the period two months prior to their Registration date and 30 days after the first day of class. However it is in your best interest to provide the certificate before classes start. If we do not receive your Certificate of Residence, you will be responsible for paying the non-resident portion of your tuition out of pocket. Certificates of Residency must be renewed annually.
