In accordance with the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (P.L. 104.208; 110 Stat. 3009-546), a person who was not a citizen or legal resident of the United States or who is not lawfully present in the United States is not entitled to classification as an in-state student pursuant to ARS §15-1802 or entitled to classification as a county resident pursuant to ARS §15-1802.01. A student will be assessed out-of-state tuition until such time that documentation of lawful presence is received in the Office of Admissions and Records/Enrollment Services and (eligibility for) residency is confirmed. Documentation must be provided prior to the end of the term in which residency classification is being requested. Documentation received after the end of term will be used for residency determination in subsequent terms. 3.
