An unemancipated person may be classified as a resident student without meeting the twelve-month residence requirement within South Dakota if the person's presence in South Dakota results from the establishment by the person's parents of their residence within the state and if the person proves that the move was predominantly for reasons other than to enable such person to become entitled to the status of resident student. Any person entitled to receive tuition and fees from the Department of Human Services or the Department of Social Services shall be classified a resident student.
