Residency/Tuition Estimates
There are three ways to define your residency.
1. College District
If you live in the Del Mar College tax district, you are considered in-district without exception.
2. Texas Resident
In determining residency, the College will use the same guidelines as the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. In order for the State of Texas resident’s tuition rate to apply, you must supply the documentation required. See the Proof of Texas Residency section of the Catalog for a list of acceptable documentation.
3. Out-of-State
If you have not proven your Texas residency at the time of preregistration and/or registration, you will be considered an out-of-state student and billed accordingly.
