Additional Residency Requirements Information
Attendance at a MA university or college does not, by itself, establish MA residency for the purposes of application to UMMS.
Applicants who are foreign nationals must possess a Resident Alien Registration Card ("Green Card") at the time of application to be considered for UMMS admission in addition to satisfying the criteria established for MA residency.
MA residents currently attending a college, university or other school in another state or in the military service may still qualify for classification as a MA resident applicant if they meet other established criteria (graduated from a MA high school while a resident of MA for example).
Submission of documentation does not guarantee residency criteria will have been met by the applicant. Decisions are made on a case-by-case basis, depending on the information provided. Applicants will be notified of the admissions committee decision.
