North Dakota Residency Application Form

Important North Dakota Residency Information:

For students changing their residency status to North Dakota only:
If you are planning to change your residency status you must apply and be approved for the residency change within 30 days of the 1st class day of the semester. If you successfully change your residency within this time period your tuition amount will be able to be adjusted to your new resident status for the current semester. Please contact Student Account Services if you have any further questions regarding residency change.

• A student who has graduated from a Minnesota High School within the 12 month period prior to first term of enrollment will not be required to complete a reciprocity application form. 

• A student who was enrolled, received reciprocity, and earned credits during any term of the academic year will automatically have benefits renewed for the following academic year at the same institution. 

• Any student who is enrolling and has taken a break in semesters, or is a transfer student, must complete the reciprocity form.

You may also apply for reciprocity at the MHESO web site:   http://www.getreadyforcollege.org/

Until reciprocity is granted, students are required to pay nonresident tuition.
