State universities in Ohio residency rules for those affected by job transfers
Many families in this area have been affected by job transfers, that brings up a very important question for students who may be affected by their families having to uproot their lives.
What are the rules and regulations that impact in-state and out-of-state tuition at state universities in Ohio?
There are many questions about what happens to the students and whose lives are affected, according to the Trumbull County Educational Service Center students and their families have encountered issues like:
State University Residency Advisory:
-
A graduating senior staying in Ohio to attend a state university while both parents move out of state due to job transfers and continue to claim that student on their taxes.
-
A graduating senior staying in Ohio with one parent also staying in Ohio while the other parent moves out of state due to a job transfer. When asking about this situation, the state where taxes will be filed could impact the university's residency decision and should be discussed with the university.
-
A current high school student (not a graduating senior) staying with one parent in Ohio to complete high school and planning to attend a state university while the other parent moves out of state due to a job transfer. When asking about this situation, the state where taxes will be filed could impact the university’s residency decision and should be discussed with the university.
-
Any student entering or currently attending a state university who has a parent impacted by a job transfer out of state and is planning to transfer to another state university. When asking about this situation, the state where taxes will be filed could impact the university’s residency decision and should be discussed with the university.
Any further questions regarding state university regulations should be brought up with the school that the student is attending.
