Residency

Your 十大彩票网赌平台 residency status determines your tuition. Review the 十大彩票网赌平台 residency status criteria below and learn how to change your 十大彩票网赌平台 residency status or home address. Some tuition discounts are available in specific circumstances.

Veterans, as well as military staff transferred to Michigan, just need to present appropriate documentation to waive the 6-month Michigan residency requirement for themselves and dependents who reside with them.

** For those who have permanent resident alien, asylum, refugee, or federally approved DACA status, residency will initially be set to out-country. After you bring in documents showing your status, as well as the items 十大彩票网赌平台 needs to verify your current residency, we will adjust your residency status.

Aspects of Residency

  1. The residency of a student will be based on current and valid Driver's License, State ID or Passport.
  2. A student establishes legal residency using the address and other pertinent information submitted on their application and registration materials. The college will verify the residency.
  3. The residency of minors (under 18) shall follow that of their parents or legal guardian. However, students under 18 who provide sufficient evidence that they are independently supporting themselves, and reside in the Washtenaw Community College District, may qualify as in-district residents regardless of their parent's residency status.
  4. A student who is not a U.S. citizen and does not have permanent resident alien, asylum, refugee or valid DACA status who attended an accredited Michigan high school for at least three years and thereafter (a) graduated from an accredited Michigan high school or (b) received a Michigan General Education Development High School Equivalency Certificate (GED) may be classified as In-District, Out-District, or Out-State student.
  5. The residency of any person, who may furnish funds for payment of College fees, (other than a parent or legal guardian with whom the minor resides) shall in no way affect the residency of the student.
  6. Veterans, as well as military staff transferred to Michigan, may present the appropriate military documentation by the 十大彩票网赌平台 deadline and the 6-month Michigan residency requirement will be waived.  This extends to the dependents who reside with them.

Any individual using educational assistance under the following chapters: Chapter 30 (Montgomery GI Bill® - Active Duty Program), Chapter 31 (Vocational Rehabilitation), Chapter 33 (Post- 9/11GI Bill®), of Title 38, United States Code, The Marine Gunnery Sergeant John David Fry Scholarship (38 U.S.C. § 3311(b) (9)), Chapter 35 (Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance Program) and Chapter 1606 of Title 10 U.S.C. (Montgomery GI Bill®- Selected Reserve) who lives in the State of Michigan while attending Washtenaw Community College will be charged in-state tuition rates (regardless of his/her formal state of residence).
  8. Students who live with and whose spouse is a legal resident of Washtenaw County or State of Michigan will obtain the residency status of their spouse.
  9. Students who live with and are dependent on a parent or a legal guardian who is a legal resident of Washtenaw County or State of Michigan will obtain the residency of the parent or legal guardian.
