Let鈥檚 begin 鈥� Just a few simple steps to complete your Residency Status application!
You can complete that application through the NC Residency Determination Service (RDS). RDS determines whether you鈥檒l pay in-state or out-of-state tuition.
You鈥檒l need your Social Security and Driver鈥檚 License Number, if applicable, to complete the request. If under the age of 24, you will need the Social Security and Driver’s Licence Number for a parent/guardian as well. Once completed, you will be assigned a Residency Certification Number (RCN). Save this number! You鈥檒l need it for Step 2 when you complete your BCC admissions application.
Note: Career and College Promise applicants do not need to complete Residency to enroll in courses while in high school.
For more information about RDS, to include the reconsideration or appeals processes for residency classification, please visit .
Now you鈥檙e ready to complete the admissions application! You鈥檒l need the RDS number you just received to enter on your Application.
If you are enrolled at another college and want to take courses to transfer back to your home institution, select 鈥淣on-degree Seeking鈥� for your Program of Study under the enrollment information section of the application.
