YOUR VOTE MATTERS

 
IT DOESN'T MATTER if you’ve never voted before.
IT DOESN'T MATTER what political party you favor or even if you don’t favor one at all.
And IT DOESN'T MATTER if you’re not quite sure how it all works.
What MATTERS is that you vote.
And we want to make sure that YOU have the chance this fall.

 

REGISTER TO VOTE in the Campus Center!

Who Can Vote?

In order to participate in this election, you must:

  • Be 18 years of age before Tuesday, November 5, 2024
  • Be a citizen of the United States
  • Be a registered voter in the state where you will vote
  • Please note: each state has its own voter registration deadlines and residency requirements
  • Provide photo ID on Election Day (if voting in person)

If you are an international student or a permanent resident (green card holder), you are NOT eligible to vote, even if you may have received a voter registration card by mistake.

 

Where Should I Vote?

Many out-of-state students wonder whether they should vote in their home state or in the state where they go to school. The short answer is that the choice is legally yours. However, here are a few things to keep in mind.

  • Michigan requires that you reside in the state at least 30 days before Election Day.
  • You can register in your home state or in the state where you go to school, but you may vote in only one state during an election. Voting in multiple states is a felony.
  • Registering in your home state often requires requesting and submitting an absentee ballot. Rules and deadlines for absentee voting vary state by state.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will where I register to vote affect my financial aid?

No, it will not. However, if you have scholarships that require residency in a particular state, make certain that registering out-of-state will not affect your scholarship. 

Q: Will where I register to vote affect if my parents can claim me on their taxes?

No, a parent can claim you on their taxes, no matter where you are registered.

Q: Will where I register to vote affect if I can be included on my parent's health insurance?

No, where you register will not affect your status on your parent's health insurance plan.
