American Indian Residency

RCW 28B.15.0131: Resident tuition rates – American Indian students allows students who are members of specific tribes to gain resident tuition in Washington. Those tribes are federally recognized and have traditional and customary tribal boundaries that include portions of Washington state or were granted reserved lands within Washington state. This survey will help you determine if you are eligible for residency for tuition purposes in Washington state.

Do you currently live in Washington, Idaho, Montana, or Oregon?
Have you lived in Washington, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, or a combination of these states for at least one year?
We calculate this based on the first day of instruction for the semester that you wish to start receiving resident tuition. For example, if you are applying for Fall 2025, which starts on September 24th, 2025, have you lived in an eligible state since September 25th, 2024?
This listing is based on a State of Washington Governor’s Office of Indian Affairs listing dated 4/19/18.

You might be eligible for resident tuition. Submit a photocopy of your tribal membership card to the Records & Registration Office, 201 Sutton Hall, 333 Eagle Lane, Cheney, WA 99004.

You are probably not eligible. If your tribe is not listed, and you believe this to be an error, please contact us at regonline@ewu.edu.
