A student’s initial residency status is based on three things; drivers license state, self declared state of residency, and how long they have been residing in their state of residency.
A student who states that their state of residency is Utah, but has a Colorado drivers license will be admitted as a non-resident.
A student who has a Utah state of residency, but stated that they have lived here for less than a year will be admitted as a non-resident.
A student who has a Utah drivers license but stated that their state of residency is Arizona will be admitted as a non-resident.
Basically any time there is a conflict or question in their residency, they will be admitted as a non-resident. If a student feels this is in error, can reach out to the Admissions Office for clarification and solve the issue. They can work with the Admissions Office through the first day of class. They can email the Admissions Office at admissions@utahtech.edu or call 435-652-7777.
Once classes start students will have to go through the Application For Utah Residency through the Registrar’s Office.
