If a student or his or her parent/legal guardian or spouse relocated to the state of Georgia during the 12 months prior to the beginning of classes in order to accept full-time, self-sustaining employment, and has established domicile in the state of Georgia, they may qualify for a听temporary waiver听of out-of-state tuition while establishing residency. A student who is given this waiver will still need to complete the听full residency petition听in order to be permanently re-classified as a Georgia resident after the 12-month timeline has passed.
Both of these forms,听 the Economic Advantage temporary waiver form and the Petition for In-State Tuition form for those who have already established residency for at least one year, are available by visiting the “Student Forms” tab located in the MyCCGA portal and navigating to the “pre-Enrollment” folder.
