<p>Okay, Mahmoud, I’ve checked out some of your posts and now see that you mother is – from the looks of it – neither a citizen or permanent resident, but that somehow you are a permanent resident, and that with an efc of 0, you are hoping for full funding (I think – just took a quick glance). Your situation is very delicate here, because your mom will need a green card, and your financial aid status derives from your mom. If you are living abroad now, you need to make very certain you maintain your US permanent resident status as well. In addition, Michigan not not usually give comprehensive aid to internationals or even those out of state. I’m not sure who can give you guidance in this situation – a combination of an immigration lawyer (because unless you become emancipated – another long drawn out legal process) your classification will derive from you mother. If I were you I would have a detailed discussion about all this with someone in the registrars office, if they’re willing.</p>
<p>If you can clear the immigration hurdles of getting your mother a green card to work here, you might for financial reasons consider attending a Michigan community college for your first two years, doing well, and transferring to umich as a jr. That would give you time to establish residency, but allow you to continue on the path without the financial stakes being so incredibly high. Best wishes.</p>
