Students enrolling in the Health Manpower Shortage or Statewide Programs as out-of-county students are eligible to receive tuition reduction to in-county rates. The Annotated Code of Maryland, Education Article Section 17-310, permits state residents to enroll in programs out of their county of residence and pay only the tuition and fees payable by a resident of that county, if the resident’s home county does not have a similar major.
To remain eligible, students must be enrolled in credit courses that are required for approved Statewide or Health Manpower Shortage Programs. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in an outstanding tuition differential balance at out-of-county rates. In addition:
Students must verify their programs of study with the Records and Registration office at the time of registration.
During the billing period, tuition will be adjusted for students whose majors are Health Manpower Shortage or Statewide Programs.
When tuition is due at time of registration, students must inform the Bursar that they are enrolled in Health Manpower Shortage or Statewide Programs.
Students who drop classes during the 50 percent refund period become responsible for 50 percent of the out-of-county tuition charge.
