Voter Registration Notice

BEFORE YOU REGISTER: You are eligible to register to vote in your home state. You are also eligible to register to vote in Maryland if you intend to make Maryland your permanent residence. But before you register in Maryland, you may want to consult the laws of your home state. Registering in Maryland may make you (or your parents) ineligible for state financial aid, tax credits for education, residency for graduate school, driver's licenses, and other benefits and services.

Please register to vote, but think carefully about where you want to register.
