Residency Determination Service
As part of the college application process, you must go to www.ncresidency.org and complete the Residency Determination Service. Take your time and be careful! This is how colleges determine whether you have to pay in-state or out-of-state tuition. There is a big difference in cost so don’t just guess at your answers! Your login information is the same as your CFNC.org account information. This needs to be done with a parent/guardian.
