[quote=Anonymous]Hmm, seems to me that in-state residency will not change:
[quote]Q: When and how is my in-state or out-of-state classification established?

A: [b]Your classification is first established by the Admissions Office at the time of admission[/b] to the University and is based on information you have provided as part of the application process. If you have not provided this information, or if it is incomplete, you will be assigned out-of-state status. [b]Once admitted to the University, you will retain this classification unless and until you file a successful Petition for Change[/b] in Classification for Admission, Tuition, and Charge Differential ("Petition for Change").[/quote]

[quote]Q: Whom should I contact for more information?

A: You may contact Residency Reclassification Services at resclass@umd.edu or (301) 314-9596. You may also visit the Office in Room 1130, Mitchell Building.[/quote]
I'd rely on the above, the fact that you will not be filing a petition for change, so nothing will change.  If you feel that is insufficient, then I'd be tempted to have student walk in, say "I have a question.  I am a junior and I have always had in-state residency.  My parents are thinking about moving out-of-state.  If they did move, would that change my tuition?"[/quote]
