Hi,
I'm currently a rising senior at Goucher College in Towson, MD looking at attending the University of Maryland School of Social Work after I graduate from Goucher. I am currently a PA resident, but even regardless of UMD, I have every intention in the world to remain in MD. I am aware that one must have 12 months of consecutive residence to gain in state tuition at UMD, but what counts as residence? Could I consider my dorm MD residence, and then upon graduation move into an apartment in MD for the summer and thus have 12 months residence? I'm aware that I would need to transfer my voter registration, license, and car registration to begin the process this year, is there anything else? Would this work? I intend to stay a MD resident beyond graduation from UMD and Goucher, but I know that doesn't count for a whole lot, but if there's any way I could finagle in state tuition that would be really helpful as I go on into a profession where paying back loans isn't exactly easy to do...
