Not a green card owner, Pending permanent resident, can I still receive in-state tuition?(Virg. Tech

Paying for College

Hello. To keep things simple I will go straight to the point. I do not have a green card, I have applied for it, I have been living in VA for the past 10 yrs, have drivers license and I can legally be here etc etc. I took a look at virginia techs website for the requirement and it seems like nothings blocking me from receiving the in-state tuition, but I got a call recently from the college that they need to speak to me about residency issue, and if I dont then I will automatically be charged out-of-state.

So my question is, can I still receive in-state tuition benefit if I dont own a green card?

What type of visa or permission do you have to be in the US? You need to check the Va Tech website to see what is required for instate tuition.

It’s up to VA Tech. Call them.

Check with the school’s policy. It varies a lot for in state tuition qualification even within the same state.

A person holds a green card, (the typical terminology is ‘hold’, not ‘own’ one).
