Tuition Classification Changes

Any student who believes his/her tuition classification is not correct or has changed and now wishes to prove he/she is eligible for in-state tuition may petition for in-state tuition or resident classification and should contact the MCC Director of Admissions for assistance. Petition forms are available online at www.MorganCC.edu or at the Admissions and Records Office. Changes in tuition classification must be submitted to the Director of Admissions prior to the drop date for the current semester.

Petitions for in-state residency must be done prior to the end of add/drop for that semester. Students who meet this priority deadline should know the petition decision before the deadline to drop courses for the fifteen week semester. The MCC Director of Admissions may request additional documentation as the burden of proof rests upon the petitioner to substantiate the claim of resident for tuition classification purposes. The MCC Director of Admissions notifies the student of the outcome within 30 days of the decision via official MCC student email and/or standard letter.
