If you have previously registered as a nonresident you may change to in-district resident status upon satisfying the requirements above. When recently married you shall be deemed an in-district or Michigan resident if your spouse satisfies the requirements above. Initial residency status shall be determined by the Enrollment Services Office.

It is your responsibility to notify the Registrar’s Office/Student Welcome Center, prior to the first day of classes for any semester, of any change in residence that would affect your residency classification.
