I'm going to vet school!!!!!
I'm going to vet school!!!!!
Hello everyone! Do you know how many years the VMSP program at U of I generally takes? I am just curious. Thanks!
1a. What do I, an independent student, have to do to become an Illinois resident for tuition purposes?
The University of Illinois requires that you be a bona fide resident of Illinois for one calendar year prior to the term for which you are applying for resident status. The University's requirements to establish residency may be different than other Illinois institutions of higher education or government agencies. Bona fide residency involves being gainfully employed and actually living in the state for one year, and taking other specific actions which link you to the state of Illinois. It also requires that you reside in Illinois primarily for reasons that are not related to receiving an education. Its important that actions be completed before the beginning of the term in which you are attempting to establish residency.
From what I've seen, you just have to have your drivers license changed, get a part time job, and pay taxes in the state. You have to have proof of the changes for one year. I'm assuming that is rent payments, or utility payments. The Office of Student Affairs will have more specific information on what you as an individual will need to do.
Okay, I made the decision. Illinois here I come!!
