I am from a rural community in West Virginia.
I have been classified as an in-state student by Marshall University residency guidelines (https://www.marshall.edu/admissions/residency-classification/)
The information requested in this section is utilized to meet Federal and State requirements. Your optional but important responses will not be used in the admission process. College and universities are asked by many, including the federal government, accrediting associations, college guides, newspapers, and our own college/university communities, to describe the racial/ethnic backgrounds of our students and employees.
