Residency Quizzes
We created three short residency quizzes to help you find out if you may be eligible for resident tuition at WSU. These quizzes will not track your personal information and are a tool to estimate eligibility. Take them as many times as you wish. The quizzes are NOT the residency application.
Which quiz should I take?
- Residency Affidavit Quiz. This is the easiest application if you meet the criteria. Did you live in Washington for one year prior to your first year in a Washington college? Take this quiz.
- General Residency Quiz. Take this quiz if you did not personally live in Washington 12 months before attending a WA college.
- American Indian Quiz. Are you a member of a tribe? Take this quiz to see if your membership qualifies you for Washington resident tuition.
The quiz says I'm eligible. Now what?
- Traditional applications: Download the appropriate checklist to assemble your documents before starting the application. Apply for residency up to 60 days prior to the term and no later than 30 days into the term that you want resident tuition to begin.
- Residency Affidavit: Check the application to see which terms are currently available. This application can be processed earlier for students who are currently attending a Washington high school.
The quiz says I am NOT eligible now. Can I apply later?
Yes. We review applications for Fall and Spring semesters. Visit the Future Residency page for actions that you can take now to be eligible for resident tuition in a future semester.
