Per The Board of Regents of University System of Georgia (USG) policy, individuals who apply to 番茄直播app must submit documentation of US citizenship or permanent residency before being considered for in-state tuition. 

*The following documents serve as proof of lawful presence in the United States. One of the following is required before you are eligible for in-state tuition:

  • Your completed FAFSA for the most recently available financial aid year. Lawful presence can be determined through this process. The Valdosta State University school code for the FAFSA is 001599.
  • A certified US birth certificate showing the applicant was born in the US or a US territory. Photocopies are not acceptable.
  • Copy of a current US passport.
  • Copy a driver’s license or state issued ID card issued by the state of Georgia or any of the USG approved states. Licenses/ID cards must be valid and meet USG requirements; limited-term are not acceptable. 
  • Copy of a US certificate of naturalization.
  • Copy of a US certificate of citizenship.
  • A US certificate of birth abroad issued by the Department of State or a consular report of birth abroad.
  • A current, valid Permanent Resident Card (USCIS form I-151 or I-551).
  • Current ID issued by the State of Georgia
  • Current Military ID (service member only, not dependent)

Any applicant whose status cannot be verified is not eligible for in-state tuition regardless of how long he or she has lived in Georgia.

To avoid paying out-of-state tuition (if you believe you qualify for the in-state rate), please submit one of the above documents if you have not submitted FAFSA as soon as possible. Once we receive that documentation, your application will be evaluated for in-state tuition. Please Note:  If you have been classified as an out-of-state student for tuition purposes verification of lawful presence in the United States will not change your status as an out-of-state student without further proof that you are a resident of Georgia for tuition purposes.

Documents (except the certified birth certificate) may be faxed to 229-333-5482 or emailed as a scanned document (pdf, jpg, etc.) to admissions@valdosta.edu. You may also mail the documents directly to the Office of Admissions.
