W i t h the exception hereinafter provided (in Regulation 7 hereof), an adult student whose parents (or one of them if only one parent is living or the parents are separated and divorced) have established and are maintaining a bona fide residence in the State and who resides with them (or the one residing in the State) or elsewhere in the State will be regarded as a resident student. 7. An adult student whose parents are dead or reside outside the State, or an adult student whose parents reside in the State but who has at any time established a separate residence of his own outside the State, to be considered a resident of the State of Illinois for the purpose of registration in the University and the assessment of student fees must have been a bona fide resident of the State for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the beginning of any semester, term, or session for which he registers at the University, must continue to maintain a bona fide legal residence in the State during said semester, term, or session, and must present evidence satisfactory to the Dean of Admissions and Records that he is entirely self-supporting and not under parental control. 8. A married female, whether a minor or adult, shall be considered a resident of the State if she is living with her husband and he has established and maintained a bona fide residence in the State for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding her registration at the University as a student and he is a bona fide resident of the State at the time of such registration. 9. An adult alien, who has filed a Declaration of Intention to become a citizen of the United States of America or with respect to whose application for United States citizenship a final hearing has been held without a decision having been rendered adverse thereto, may qualify as a resident of the State for purposes of registration in the University as a student if he has established and maintained a bona fide residence within the State for a period of at least twelve months immediately preceding the beginning of any semester, term, or session for which he registers at the University, and if he also meets and complies with all of the other requirements of these regulations to establish resident status which are applicable to adult students who are citizens of the United States. 10. A minor student who is an alien may qualify as a resident of the State, for purposes of registration in the University and the assessment of student fees, if his parents, or his living parent if one is deceased, are citizens of the United States, or if they have filed a Declaration of Intention to become citizens thereof or final hearings have been held upon their applications for United States citizenship without any decision having been rendered which is adverse to their application, and if all of the requirements to establish resident status of the foregoing portions of these regulations which would be applicable to said minor student if he would not be an alien have been also fully met. However, in order to maintain his status as a resident student, such student must file his own Declaration of Intention to become a United States citizen, or a final hearing must have been held upon his application for citizenship without a decision adverse to that application having been rendered, as soon as such student is permitted, under applicable Federal law and regulations, to file such a declaration or to file such an application and receive a final hearing thereon. 11. In cases of dual citizenship, in which a student, whether adult or minor, is a citizen of the United States as well as a citizen of some other country, such student, in order to qualify as a resident of the State for the purpose of registration in the University and the assessment of student fees, must comply with and meet all of the requirements to establish resident status of the foregoing regulations which would apply to him, as an adult or minor student as the case may be, if he were a citizen of the United States only and did not possess dual citizenship. 12.
