California Residency Reclassification

Residency regulations are extremely complex. The information contained in this document is summarized from the Education Code of California. The Admissions and Records Office will attempt to assist you, but the burden of proof rests with the student.

Every person, by law, has a legal residence and there can only be one legal residence. In California, those persons who possess the legal ability to establish residency must be physically present (lived in California) AND demonstrate their INTENT to remain in California. The residency determination date is one year and one day before the term begins. Since intent is a subjective state of mind, it must be demonstrated through objective measures. For more detailed information, please visit our website.

Priority Registration & California College Promise Grant Appeal

The California College Promise Grant (CCPG) (previously known as the Board of Governor’s Fee Waiver or “BOGW”) is a state program for California residents and AB 540 students that waives enrollment fees for qualified students at community colleges.

There are three ways to qualify for a CCPG:

Demonstrated financial need based on completion of the FAFSA or the California Dream Act Application.
Receipt of qualifying public assistance programs (CalWORKs, SSI, General Assistance/Relief), or status as a disabled veteran or dependent of a deceased or disabled veteran, as certified by the California Department of Veterans Affairs.
Meeting specific income standards based on family size.

Pursuant to Title 5, section 58621, students with two consecutive semesters (fall/spring) of academic or progress probation will lose eligibility for the CCPG. Foster youth under the age of 25 are exempt from this regulation.

Students may appeal the loss of the CCPG fee waiver if they were unable to meet academic or progress requirements due to one or more of the following:

Verified accidents, illnesses, or circumstances beyond the student’s control
Disability accommodations applied for but not received in a timely manner
Significant academic improvement
Changes to the student’s economic situation
Inability to obtain essential support services
Special consideration for CalWORKs, EOPS, DSPS, and Veteran students

Appeal forms are available in the Financial Aid and Admissions & Records offices.
