Current resident is defined as someone who has resided in one of the three counties continuously for a minimum of one year immediately prior to attending a post-secondary institution.

A student who has moved to Coffey, Lyon, or Osage County and immediately begins a post-secondary education is not eligible for educational or medical assistance. 4.

This determination is made by our board of Trustees and based on information that you complete on our application, as well as financial information you are required to submit. 5.
