The
residence
status
of
an
applicant
or
student
is
determined
in
accordance
with
the
University
of
Louisiana
System
Board
of
Supervisors
regulations
and
is
based
upon
evidence
provided
in
the
application
for
admission
and
related
documents.
Residence
status
is
determined
by
the
Office
of
the
Registrar
and/or
Admissions
after
the
completed
application
for
admission
has
been
submitted.
The
regulations
are
based
primarily
on
the
location
of
the
home
and
the
place
of
employment.
Residence
status
may
not
be
acquired
by
an
applicant
or
student
while
residing
in
Louisiana
for
the
primary
purpose
of
attending
school.
Residence
status,
for
fee
purposes
only,
will
be
granted
to
non-resident
graduate
students
registered
for
three
semester
hours
or
less
and
undergraduate
students
registered
for
six
semester
hours
or
less
in
any
session,
or
all
non-resident
students
enrolled
in
up
to
six
semester
hours
of
graduate
or
undergraduate
courses
offered
through
web-based
or
other
electronic
instruction,
when
domiciled
outside
of
the
state
of
Louisiana
and
not
enrolled
in
any
other
courses
at
the
university.
A
resident
student
for
tuition
purposes
is
defined
as
one
who
has
abandoned
all
prior
domiciles
and
has
been
domiciled
in
the
state
of
Louisiana
continuously
for
at
least
one
full
year
(365
days)
immediately
preceding
the
first
day
of
classes
of
the
term
for
which
resident
classification
is
sought.
"Domicile"
as
the
term
is
used
in
the
context
of
residence
regulations,
is
defined
as
an
individual's
true,
fixed,
and
permanent
home
and
place
of
habitation
at
which
the
individual
remains
when
not
called
elsewhere
for
labor,
studies,
or
other
special
or
temporary
purposes,
and
the
place
to
which
the
individual
returns
after
an
absence.
A
nonresident
student
for
tuition
purposes
is a
student
not
eligible
for
classification
as a
resident.
The
individual's
physical
presence
within
this
state
for
one
year
must
be
associated
with
the
substantial
evidence
that
such
presence
was
with
the
intent
to
maintain
a
Louisiana
domicile.
Physical
presence
within
the
state
solely
for
education
purposes
without
substantial
evidence
of
the
intent
to
remain
in
Louisiana
will
not
be
sufficient
for
resident
classification
regardless
of
the
length
of
time
within
the
state.
