residency

I live in Maryland, why do I need to answer questions about residency?

When a student misses one or more semesters their tuition residency eligibility must be reviewed and re-evaluated. The USM Board of Regents establishes the in-state tuition residency requirements that govern Towson University’s residency policy. Please note that students must notify TU in writing within fifteen (15) days of any change in circumstances, which may alter in‐state tuition residency status. The Registrar's Office may request further documentation to verify in-state tuition eligibility.
