Residence Requirements—Semester-Credit Programs
The State of Texas requires new students to sign an affidavit certifying their legal residence at the time of enrollment. Returning ACC students who have not attended ACC in a year or more must recertify residency status prior to re-enrollment.
Students must prove to the satisfaction of the Admissions and Records Office that they are entitled to be classified as a resident of Texas.
The responsibility for registering under the proper residence classification is that of the student. Questions concerning his or her right to classification as a resident of Texas must be clarified with the Admissions and Records Office prior to enrollment at Austin Community College.
Please consult the course schedule for residency change deadlines for each registration period. Changes made after established deadlines will not be in effect until subsequent registration periods.
All tuition and fees are subject to change without notice. When registering by phone, all deadlines for payment set forth in the current Fall, Spring, Summer or short semester course schedule must be observed. All tuition and fees must be paid at the time of enrollment. No partial payments will be accepted unless a contract for payment of tuition in installments has been signed. A student is not officially registered until payment is made in full. Until all financial obligations to the College have been satisfied, a student cannot register, graduate, or have a transcript issued.
