Why was I charged non-resident tuition on my billing statement?

Fees are assessed by the Registrar's Office based on your state of legal residence. Non-resident tuition is assessed by the Registrar's Office only to non-residents of the State of California. If you are a new student it is important that you complete and return your Statement of Legal Residence as soon as you receive the form, thus establishing your correct residence status. If your completed Statement of Legal Residence is not received by the Registrar's Office prior to the date fees are assessed, you will be billed non-resident tuition.
