I living in an apartment in Ohio, I moved in the mid-year from Michigan. I am applying to med schools and don't have an intent to stay long-term in Ohio. Am I a resident?

Based on the information from the Ohio Department of Taxation, you would be considered a part-year resident because you were a n Ohio resident for a part of the year and a non-resident for a part of the year.

Ohio defines a resident for income tax purposes, is someone who's domiciled in Ohio, which you are. They define a non-resident as someone who was a resident of another state for the entire year. You don't fit in either of those categories.

It's not clear cut. Do you still have a home in MI? If you moved from your parent's home, then it's more iffy. Normally, being in another state for schooling is only considered a temporary absence from your primary residence state.

But, you don't need to move to simply apply to schools. So, from the little info you supplied, you are probably a part year Ohio resident.
