Residence of Students
Since persons residing within the public school districts of
Poplar Bluff R-I, Neelyville R-IV, Twin Rivers R-X, Van
Buren R-I, East Carter R-II, Ripley County R-III, Ripley
County R-IV, Clearwater R-I and Greenville R-II are also residents
of the Three Rivers College District, they pay local property
taxes to help support the college. As a result, they and their
children are charged lower fees than are charged those persons
residing outside of the district.
In determining the residence of an individual, either of the following
shall be sufficient proof of domicile of a person and his
dependents within the college district:
| 1. Presence within the college district for a period of 12
months and sufficient proof of intent to make the college
district a permanent home for an indefinite period; and, |
|
| 2. Presence within the college district for the purposes of
retirement, full-time employment, professional practice,
or to conduct a business full-time. |
If a question arises concerning the resident status of the student,
it shall be the responsibility of the student to prove residency
within the college district.
The student can petition the Welcome Center for a change of
residency. The student needs to submit a completed “Request for
Change in Residency” form with supporting evidence to the Welcome Center. Any change in the student’s residency status will
not be retroactive.
All questions about eligibility for Residence of Students, please contact the Welcome Center at 573-840-9665. |
