STUDENT DOMICILE FOR TUITION PURPOSES

General Montague, Chairman of the special committee appointed by the Rector at the meeting of
the Board on 14 February 1959 to consider proposed changes in the regulations governing the
determination of student domicile for tuition purposes, reported to the Board on behalf of himself
and his fellow committee members, Visitors Fenwick and Greear. The committee proposed the deletion
of the second paragraph of the regulations adopted by the Board at its meeting on 10 September 1954.

The following resolution was adopted by the Board

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that the rules governing the determination of student domicile for tuition purposes as adopted
on 10 September 1954 be and they are hereby amended to read as follows

In order to be considered a Virginia student for any given semester, it is necessary that
the applicant shall have been domiciled in the State of Virginia for at least one year immediately
preceding the beginning of that semester, and the applicant or his parents must have been bona
fide taxpayers to the State of Virginia for the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar
year of registration.

Residence in the State for the purpose of securing an education does not qualify an individual
for classification as a Virginia student
