MEMORANDUM***

Tuition in the Montana University System is lower for Montana residents than for out-of-state enrollees.1 Students from out-of-state were informed that they could not obtain residency status while enrolled in more than six credits as a student. Student plaintiffs challenged the schools’ residency policies under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, asserting that the policies violated Supreme Court precedent in Vlandis v. Kline, 412 U.S. 441, 452, 93 S.Ct. 2230, 37 L.Ed.2d 63 (1973) (holding that a state university system “is forbidden by the Due Process Clause to deny an individual the resident rates on the basis of a permanent and irrebuttable presumption of nonresidence”).2 The district court granted summary judgment to Defendants. We affirm.

*714We conclude that Plaintiffs had standing to bring their claims. Plaintiffs must show that their asserted injury was “fairly traceable” or had “some connection” to Defendants. See Southern Pac. Transp. Co. v. Brown, 651 F.2d 613, 615 (9th Cir. 1980). Although Defendants had no direct involvement with the actual determination of Plaintiffs’ residency status, Defendants had a duty to create and enforce residency presumptions in accordance with constitutional requirements. See Oregon Advocacy Center v. Mink, 322 F.3d 1101, 1114-16 (9th Cir. 2003). Defendants’ participation in the creation and enforcement of the residency presumption at issue here creates a sufficient causal connection to Plaintiffs’ alleged injuries for Plaintiffs to have standing to bring claims challenging the residency policies.

However, Plaintiffs’ claims are barred by the statute of limitations. Plaintiffs’ claims accrued outside of the limitation period because Plaintiffs had reason to know of their claims when Plaintiffs were denied, formally or informally, in-state residency status and gained the impression that the denial was based solely on their status as full-time students. See Hoesterey v. City of Cathedral City, 945 F.2d 317, 319 (9th Cir. 1991) (holding that the statute of limitations commences when the plaintiff “would have notice of all the allegedly wrongful acts that he later sought to challenge”). Plaintiffs’ alleged injuries are discrete, rather than continuing in nature, and thus no continuing violation of their rights occurred to extend the limitations period. See Nat’l R.R. Passenger Corp. v. Morgan, 536 U.S. 101, 113, 122 S.Ct. 2061, 153 L.Ed.2d 106 (2002); Del. State Coll. v. Ricks, 449 U.S. 250, 258, 101 S.Ct. 498, 66 L.Ed.2d 431 (1980). Plaintiffs do not present any evidence that Plaintiffs Young or Bocks made any further effort to contest their residency status within the limitations period. Because Plaintiffs could not possibly be reclassified as residents unless they made some effort to reapply or appeal their classification, the payment of non-residency tuition each semester is “a delayed, but inevitable, consequence” of the original denial, and not a “separate and independent violation” of their due process rights. See Knox v. Davis, 260 F.3d 1009, 1014 (9th Cir. 2001).3
