Residency Information

A resident student is defined as one of the following:

• An unemancipated student who has not attained the age of 21 and is under the care, custody or support of the individual(s) having legal custody of the student and who lives in the district.

• An emancipated minor student who has not attained the age of 21 and who is not under the care, custody and support of an individual(s) having legal custody, but who lives in the district.

• An adult student who has established residence within the St. Louis Community College district. Maintenance fees for students residing in this country on permanent resident visas will be assessed according to the fee rates listed on the Tuition and Fees page.

How do I prove my residency?

Residency proof must be submitted before the semester begins. To help make sure you are charged the lowest maintenance fee available, submit your driver’s license and a completed name/address change form (PDF) to enrollment services.

If you do not have a Missouri driver’s license but live in the district, you can provide one of the following instead:

• Property tax receipt for personal property or real estate.
• One-year lease in your name or in the name of the parent or guardian you live with.
• Copy of your federal tax return (Form 1040).
