Residency Applications and the University’s Residency Classification Guidelines
It is important to file your materials in a timely fashion. You may apply for in-state tuition for any term in which you are enrolled or intend to enroll. Late applications will be assessed a nonrefundable $300 late fee and will be accepted up to the last published day of classes of the term for which you are applying. Late applications received after the last day of classes will be treated as applications for the following term. In all cases, decisions will be based only on those facts that are in place by the original filing deadline for the term under consideration.
Deadlines

- Winter Term: all required materials must be received by 5 p.m. on January 31 of that term.
- Summer Terms: all required materials must be received by 5 p.m. on July 31 of that term.
If the deadline falls on a weekend or University holiday, all required materials must be received by 5 p.m. on the next business day. These deadlines apply to all University of Michigan schools, colleges, and campuses. For the On-Job or On-Campus program only, filing deadlines are 30 calendar days after the first scheduled day of classes of the term for which you are applying.
