<p>Okay so I just moved to Michigan this summer from Colombia, South America and I will be finishing my junior and senior years there. Right now I have a Permanent Resident Alien status and we do pay taxes from the state. I would really like to study in the University of Michigan but I don't think I would be willing to pay for OOS seeing as (hopefully) I'm planning on law school afterwards and I don't want my parents to pay that much for my undergrad when they are paying also for my law school which is going to be expensive as well. Could somebody help me please? I would really appreciate it</p>
<p>You’d usually qualify for instate tuition based on your parents qualifying for instate tuition under the university’s guidelines. Go to UMich website to read the guidelines. Since you will graduate from an instate high school you may have an easier time claiming state residency.</p>
<p>UMich has recently revised their guidelines.</p>
<p>The new residency requirements are here:</p>
