Residency requests decline at KU as rules tighten
KU reports a sharp drop in residency applications for summer as new laws extend the waiting period to one year and end automatic resident status for married students. Officials note earlier arrivals post July 1, 1975 face a required wait, with about 30 to 40 applications this summer versus about 200 last year. Summer enrollment proceeds with orientation and staged registration across campus locations.
