Certification and Submission

By checking the below box, I affirm the following:

I acknowledge that a false statement on this application will subject me to a nullification of the Ohio resident classification and the assessment of out-of-state tuition for current and future enrollments and retroactively to the first term of my enrollment as an Ohio resident for tuition purposes. I am aware that I may be assessed out-of-state fees if at any time I fail to meet the requirements of Ohio Administrative Code 3333-1-10. I understand that if I am receiving financial assistance, my aid will be reviewed and adjustments may occur as a result of being reclassified as an in-state student for tuition purposes.

I affirm
