| Committee Charge | The Non-Resident Classification Review Committee reviews student appeals of denial of residency status for tuition purposes. |
| Current Year Meeting Dates | Called as necessary when students appeal their residency classifications made by the registrar. |
| Please indicate the typical frequency of meetings (e.g., first Tuesday of month at 4 pm). If there are subcommittees, please indicate the frequency of those meetings, too. | Ad hoc. In 2025-26, we had three meetings handling 6 appeals. The previous year we had 0 because we had 0 appeals. |
| Current Year Activities | We reviewed 6 appeals this year, with meetings in August 2025, December 2025, and March 2026 |
| Topics your committee will address during the coming year | The committee will review appeals as requested. |
| Other issues of concern | None |
| What should we tell applicants for this committee regarding expectations of members (anticipated workload, existence of subcommittees, etc.)? | This committee meets infrequently when appeals arise, and meetings are scheduled for 30-90 minutes depending on the number of appeals. Committee members are expected to review appeals fairly and consistently under Board of Regents policy and state law, while preparing in advance, attending meetings, and participating actively in respectful discussion and decisions, est. 3-5 hours per semester. |
| Recommendations, if any, to the shared governance groups. | None. It is very helpful to have the registrar's assistance with this committee, which they willingly provide. |
