adult student whose parents (or one of them if only one parent is living or
the parents are separated and divorced) have established and are maintaining
a bona fide residence in the State and who resides with them (or the one
residing in the State) or elsewhere in the State will be regarded as a resident
student.
7. An adult student whose parents are dead or reside outside the State, or
an adult student whose parents reside in the State but who has at any time
established a separate residence of his own outside the State, to be considered
a resident of the State of Illinois for the purpose of registration in the University

the State for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the
beginning of any semester, term, or session for which he registers at the University,
must continue to maintain a bona fide legal residence in the State during
said semester, term, or session, and must present evidence satisfactory to the
Dean of Admissions and Records that he is entirely self-supporting and not
under parental control.
8. A married female, whether a minor or adult, shall be considered a resident
of the State if she is living with her husband and he has established and
maintained a bona fide residence in the State for a period of at least twelve
months immediately preceding her registration at the University as a student
and he is a bona fide resident of the State at the time of such registration.
9. An adult alien, who has filed a Declaration of Intention to become a
citizen of the United States of America or with respect to whose application
for United States citizenship a final hearing has been held without a decision
having been rendered adverse thereto, may qualify as a resident of the State
for purposes of registration in the University as a student if he has established
and maintained a bona fide residence within the State for a period of at least
twelve months immediately preceding the beginning of any semester, term, or
session for which he registers at the University, and if he also meets and complies
with all of the other requirements of these regulations to establish resident
status which are applicable to adult students who are citizens of the United
States.
10. A minor student who is an alien may qualify as a resident of the State,
for purposes of registration in the University and the assessment of student
fees, if his parents, or his living parent if one is deceased, are citizens of the
United States, or if they have filed a Declaration of Intention to become citizens
thereof or final hearings have been held upon their applications for United
States citizenship without any decision having been rendered which is adverse to
their application, and if all of the requirements to establish resident status of the
foregoing portions of these regulations which would be applicable to said minor
student if he would not be an alien have been also fully met. However, in
order to maintain his status as a resident student, such student must file his

hearing must have been held upon his application for citizenship without a
decision adverse to that application having been rendered, as soon as such
student is permitted, under applicable Federal law and regulations, to file such
a declaration or to file such an application and receive a final hearing thereon.

student, in order to qualify as a resident of the State for the purpose of registration
in the University and the assessment of student fees, must comply with

regulations which would apply to him, as an adult or minor student as the case
