If The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center School of Health Professions determines prior to or at the time of registration that the individual is not entitled to be classified as a resident, the individual will be required to pay tuition at the non-resident rate.
If the School of Health Professions later determines that the individual was not entitled to be classified as a resident at the time of the individual's registration, the individual shall, not later than 30 days after the date the individual is notified of the determination, pay to the School of Health Professions the amount the individual should have paid as a nonresident
If the individual fails to make timely payments as required, the individual is not entitled to receive a transcript or to receive credit for courses taken during the time the individual was falsely registered as a resident student.
