How do I obtain residency status for tuition purposes?
You may complete a residency application and provide required documentation to the Residency Officer in the Admissions Office. You may obtain an application in the office or download it from this web site. This application will then be reviewed for compliance with Utah Code and the Utah State Board of Regents Policy & Procedures. **Do not fill out the Admissions & Utah Residency Petition form unless you have submitted a residency application and your request was denied.**
When is the DEADLINE to apply for residency?
The deadline to turn in your residency application is the end of the third week of the semester you are applying for. Applications received after the deadline will be considered for the next semester.
The deadline for the Spring 2009 semester was January 23, 2009.
The deadline for the Summer 2009 semester was May 29, 2009.
The deadline for the Fall 2009 semester was September 11, 2009.
The deadline for the Spring 2010 semester is January 22, 2010.
If I leave the state of Utah, can I still be a resident when school starts for the next semester?
If you are currently a Utah resident, you may leave the state for 30 days and not lose your residency IF you did not take steps to establish residency elsewhere. If you attended an out of state college or university, you would need to verify that non-resident tuition was paid to that school.
