UM asks students to contact Undergraduate Admissions with questions about their residency (in-state or out-of-state) classification:
Newly Admitted Undergraduate Students
Newly admitted undergraduate students seeking a
review of their initial residency determination are to contact the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions at 301-314-8385 or email oua-residency@umd.edu.
Montgomery College suggestions:
1. Before you call UM, it may be helpful to review UM’s Residency Reclassification Policy page: https://www.registrar.umd.edu/Residency/resreclasspolicy.html
2.
This is UM’s Residency Reclassification PROCEDURES page. https://www.registrar.umd.edu/resreclass.html.
This page also has links for DACA and for Maryland
Dream Act questions.
It includes a SAMPLE form used request a review of Residency Classification:
https://registrar.umd.edu/Residency/Residency%20Petition%20Effective%20Winter%202021.pdf
DO NOT FILL OUT THIS FORM; it is a SAMPLE form used for Winter
2021 students; an updated but similar form may be required for Fall
2021 classification questions.
See what types of documentation may be required in the
reclassification process, but DO NOT work on documentation until you have specific instructions from UM
regarding YOUR situation for Fall 2021.
3.
Follow the instructions that you receive
from UM Office
of Undergraduate Admissions when you call or e-mail
them.
