Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The regulations of the Commission on Higher Education, relating to Determination of Rates of Tuition and Fees, designated as Regulation Document Number 1650, and submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the 1976 Code, are approved.

SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.
The regulations will simplify resident classification which is essential to fee determination, admission regulations, and other relevant policies of State institutions. The regulations are intended to provide institutions with fair and equitable standards which can be administered consistently and are sensitive to the interests of both students and the State. The Commission hereby establishes regulations for the Statute Governing Residency and Tuition for Fee Purposes to be applied by all South Carolina institutions and related agencies. More specifically, these regulations focus on: definitions, establishing the requisite intent to become a South Carolina domiciliary, maintaining a residence, effect of change of residency, effect of marriage(s), exclusion categories, faculty and administrative employees and their dependents, residents with full-time employment and their dependents, retired persons, temporary absence, non-citizens and non-permanent residents, application procedures, institutional role in determining residency status, and an appropriate institutional appeals mechanism.
