Forms

The following forms are to appeal the out-of-state tuition status rendered by the Admissions Office when a student entered the University in their current degree or non-degree program.

The deadline to appeal an initial decision made by the Admissions Office or to reclassify your current Out-of-State status is by 5 p.m. on the first day of the semester in which you are requesting reclassification. Appeals for the Fall semester shall be reviewed starting in late summer. Appeals for the Spring semester shall begin at the end of the preceding Fall semester.

If you are:

  • Currently enrolled at Mason and have completed at least one semester within the last twelve months, complete the Domicile Appeal Form 1B.
  • A newly admitted student classified by the Admissions Office as Out-of-State, complete the Initial Level 2 Domicile Appeal Form 2A.
  • A currently enrolled student appealing the decision made at the Initial Level 1B, must  complete the Intermediate Domicile Appeal Form 2B.
  • All students appealing an Intermediate Level 2A or 2B decision should complete the Reconsideration Form. New information is restricted to the review period.
  • All students appealing the decision made at the Intermediate Appeal Level, and wish to have a Third Level review, the final Administrative Appeal Level, must complete the Domicile Appeal Form 3. Please note that if you have new documentation/ information that was not submitted to the Intermediate Appeal Level prior to our issuing an Out-of-State decision on your case, you may request that your appeal be reconsidered at the Intermediate Level for Reconsideration (Reconsideration Form) prior to filing a Level 3 Appeal.
