If you want to vote in elections, check all of the requirements (IDs, registration, etc.)

<p>Some students who attend college as residential students (i.e. not at their parents' or previous address before college) choose to vote locally at their college address, while others choose to vote absentee at their parents' address. In either case, make sure that you have any needed registration, ID, and/or absentee ballot in order before the election. Do not wait until election day.</p>
