<p>I called the University of Michigan the other day to get a little more information about establishing residency and was told that they frown upon anyone establishing residency for the purpose of their student attending school. There is no length of time requirement to be a resident but you have to have a good reason to move to Michigan that doesn't involve the student per se'. </p>
<p>My mom wants to relocate and transfer with her current employer but I would hate that we get denied in state residency after all that. With the way the economy is going, we thought it would be worth it to go this route in the long run. </p>
<p>Any thoughts? It appears to be so subjective as to whether they will approve the change in residency application. Has anyone had any experience with this?</p>
