The date we use for the 12 month period is the first day of the quarter. The August 2000 Residency Handbook states on page 7: "...of at least one year immediately preceding the time of the commencement of the first day of the semester or quarter for which the student has registered ..." This is how we get around a student beginning classes late and stating that his/her first day of quarter was their own personal start date.

She immediately began working and changed her ties to the state of Washington in all ways. She began a student status as of Spring Quarter 2003 and has remained a full-time student since that time. She has applied to change her residency for winter quarter, 2004 and was denied because her domicile was not established 12 months prior to the day the quarter began. Evergreen began winter quarter, 2004 as of January 5th. The student did not return until January 13th, 2003. How insistent are you all about this timeline for a person who is not presumed to be in the state for educational purposes? As always I appreciate your advice...
