Notification of Social Security Number Collection and Usage by Miami Dade College In compliance with Section (5), Florida Statutes, Miami Dade College (MDC) issues this notification regarding the purpose for the collection and use of your Social Security Number (SSN). Miami Dade College collects and uses your SSN only to perform College duties and responsibilities. To protect your identity, MDC will maintain the privacy of your SSN and never release it to unauthorized parties in compliance with state and federal laws. The College assigns you a unique student/employee identification number which is used for associated employment and educational purposes at MDC, including the access of your college records. Miami Dade College may collect and/or use your Social Security Number for the following purposes: PURPOSE STUDENTS Admissions and Registration Federal legislation relating to the Hope Tax Credit requires that all postsecondary institutions report student SSNs to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This IRS requirement makes it necessary for MDC to collect the SSN of every student. A student may refuse to disclose his/her SSN for this purpose, but he/she may be subject to IRS penalties. The Florida public school system uses the SSN as a student identifier. It is beneficial to have access to the same information for purposes of tracking and assisting students in the transition from one educational level to the next. The intent is to establish a comprehensive management database of information which will co-reside with the Division of Public Schools Information Database and the State University System Database to provide integrated information at the state level for educational decision-making. SSNs appear on official transcripts and are used for business purposes in accordance with parameters outlined by the U.S. Department of Education. FEDERAL AND STATE REGULATIONS Tracking uses are authorized by SBE Rule 6A-10955(3)(e); , F.S. and the General Education Provisions Act (20 USC 1221(e-1)). Hope/Lifetime Tax Credit uses are authorized by 26 USC 6050S and Federal Register, June 16, 2000/IRC Section 25A Registration uses are authorized by (5), F.S. Issuance of Form 1098T for tuition payment reports are authorized by 26 USC 3402, 6051 The College Reach-Out Program (CROP) uses are authorized by , F.S. TRANSCRIPTS If you are not degree-seeking, transcripts are not required. First-Time-in-College Students All first-time-in-college students must submit final high school transcripts or equivalency (showing actual graduation date).

Your college/university transcripts will be evaluated only if you are enrolled as a degree-seeking student. Note: Failure to submit all appropriate transcripts will jeopardize future enrollment at the College and financial aid eligibility.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NAME(S) LISTED ON ALL DOCUMENTS MUST MATCH. Students under the age of 24 are considered dependent automatically, unless proven otherwise (see below).

At least one of the documents must be from the first group, and more than two documents may be requested. NOTE THAT NO SINGLE DOCUMENT SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE, AND ALL DOCUMENTATION IS SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION. EVIDENCE OF TIES TO ANOTHER STATE INVALIDATES THE ELIGIBILITY OF FLORIDA RESIDENCY CLASSIFICATION FOR TUITION PURPOSES.

The DJJ Address Verification Form shall be considered acceptable documentation for residency determination in conjunction with additional information that demonstrates that the parent or legal guardian has maintained legal residence in this state for at least 12 months prior to the first day of classes of the term for which Florida residency-for-tuition-purposes classification is sought. Students enrolling in colleges or universities that have tuition and fees exempt according to section (2)(c), Florida Statutes, shall not be required to submit Florida residency documentation for tuition purposes. THIS INFORMATION IS FOR INITIAL CLASSIFICATION ONLY. ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE AND DOCUMENTATION WILL BE REQUIRED FOR RECLASSIFICATION. Except as otherwise stated in this summary, a person who is classified as a nonresident for tuition purposes may become eligible for reclassification as a resident for tuition purposes if that person (or, if that person is a dependent child, his or her parent) presents clear and convincing documentation that supports permanent legal residency in this state for at least 12 consecutive months rather than temporary residency for the purpose of pursuing an education, such as documentation of full-time permanent employment for the prior 12 consecutive months or the purchase of a home in this state and residence therein for the prior 12 consecutive months while not enrolled in an institution of higher education. The above information serves as a summary of Florida law and related policies/procedures applied by Miami Dade College in determining eligibility of Florida residency for tuition purposes.
