Instate tuition after out-of-state gap year?

[thecambam]

So I'm applying to grad school in Colorado for Fall 2013 at CSU and am worried that I may have lost my in-state tuition eligibility! I currently am living in Michigan (since August 2012, likely through this upcoming July 2013), the only time I've lived outside of Colorado my entire life expect my 1 semester study abroad. I am registered to vote in CO, have a CO driver's license, my permanent address in there, and I graduated from University of Colorado as well. I do not have a signed lease here in MI either. However, I will pay MI income tax for part of 2012 and part of 2013. That is the one outstanding point I can see where they may be able to deny in state tuition.

 

Has anyone had a similar experience or any insight? The Colorado laws are not entirely clear and basically it is up to judgement on an individual basis. Any help is super appreciated, thanks!

I believe you still can claim domicile in CO. Where did you vote?

[thecambam]

Voted in CO as well

You are still a CO resident!

Thanks for the reassurance!

Thanks for the reassurance!

You are welcome. I had the same issues! Been there, done that!
