Incoming transfer students may choose to live on the Boca Raton campus for convenience and residential education. Students should  Complete their Application  and non-refundable application fee early so they are more likely to receive their top preference(s).

Residency Information

Is your student a Florida resident seeking in-state tuition? Then they will want to complete the Residency Form to receive in-state tuition rates. A  list of FAQs  can be found on the left side of the page. One of the links on the left reads “ What are the Basic Requirements for Florida Residency? ” That link will have the required information to prove residency listed. The student will need to complete the  Residency Form  and include the required materials to prove residence and mail or fax it to the location/number on the bottom of the form.
