Does a nonresident student become automatically eligible for resident student status by marrying an Indiana resident?
Show or Hide No. Although marriage to a resident of Indiana is one of the factors considered in the determination of predominant purpose, the existence of this factor does not require a finding of resident status. However, after providing convincing evidence that the marriage has changed a student’s predominant purpose for being in Indiana, a nonresident student may be eligible for reclassification to resident student status 12 months after the date of marriage.
