Even without US citizenship or green card status we have fulfilled all of our residential responsibilities such as paying income, sales and property taxes. We own a home in Michigan and contribute to our community regardless of our citizenship status. In the last three years we have been repeatedly disappointed, each time our son’s in-state residency application was denied by the University of Michigan. We'v been being required to pay three times higher college tuition than any other students with parents who live in Michigan. U of M, as a public university, should discontinue the unfair practice of classifying legal residents by their visa status; disregarding their legal rights and economical contribution to the state and the country. Hope under all efforts all those students like my son can be treated fairly as human in Michigan US Unfair discriminatory practice at University of Michigan
