you’re moving into Westchester from another state, both forms of ID will need to be at least one year old. The primary ID should be a New York State Driver’s License with photo or New York State Identification Card with Photo. The secondary ID can be a utility statement, bank statement, employer pay stub, New York State Tax Return from prior year, Cell or Home phone bill, Cable Bill, Automobile Registration Card, Automobile Insurance Policy, or Voter Registration Card. I need to change my resident status because I changed my immigration status. What should I do? Please email Bursar@sunywcc.edu with the appropriate documentation. I am an undocumented/out-of-status student. What tuition rate do I pay? Under New York state law, certain non-resident students, including ‘out-of-status’ students and undocumented students, are eligible for resident tuition if they fall into one of the following categories: 1. They attended an approved New York State high school for at least two years, graduated from an approved New York State high school, and applied for attendance at a SUNY or CUNY college within five years of receiving a New York State high school diploma, or 2. They attended an approved New York State program for high school equivalency diploma (GED) preparation, received a high school equivalency diploma (GED) issued within New York State, and applied for attendance at a SUNY or CUNY college within five years of receiving the high school equivalency diploma (GED). If a student meets the above requirements, he/she must email the Bursar’s Office at Bursar@sunywcc.edu to request an affidavit. The affidavit must be signed and notarized and must be emailed back to the Bursar’s Office along with a copies of the student’s high school diploma and high school transcript OR a copy of the student’s high school equivalency diploma (HSE/GED). Who qualifies for a tuition waiver? Tuition waivers for credit courses AND non-credit courses are available to eligible Westchester Community College faculty, staff, and certain adjunct professors, as well as their spouses/domestic partners and dependents – please see the attachment in the back of this section for details and eligibility criteria. Tuition waivers for credit courses are also available to county employees. Note that the tuition waiver only covers tuition, not fees. For a tuition waiver form for college employees, please email the Bursar’s office at Bursar@sunywcc.edu County employees should get their waiver forms from their union office and email Bursar@sunywcc.edu for instructions on submitting it. Students must be registered for classes before submitting waiver forms. All fees must be paid before tuition waivers can be applied. I am a member of the 1199 union. How can my union pay for my classes? First, the student needs to register, and then bring a bill (which can be printed off their MyWCC account by clicking on the ‘Invoice’ link in the ‘Financial Account’ tile) to their 1199 union office. The union will then make out a voucher to the College for the amount that they will pay, and the student should provide this voucher to the Bursar’s Office. If there is an outstanding balance, the student is responsible for paying it. The voucher usually just covers tuition, not fees.
