Hello,
I am accepted to school X which is in the state I am from. However, I attended undergrad in a different state, and after two years there, I switched my residency to that state(For only my jr/sr year). Now, I live back in my original state, where I grew up since I was 2, graduated highschool from, and was a resident of for almost all of my life EXCEPT the last two years. Both my parents lived there their entire lives and work there, as well as my sister. I am currently considered OOS (Since I switched my residency two years ago) and the school X says I must have residency in their state for 1 year PRIOR to the first day of class in august, rendering me ineligible for IS tuition. Does anyone think it would be advisable to attempt to appeal this? I am really unsure of how I would/if I would just call but I feel like someone in admissions/who works to form their budget could help me out, as I am not a typical OOS resident. Thanks for any help!
