Hi Violet;

In most cases we would require some additional evidence to support that they meet the residency requirements of Montana.

Hello,

How do other treat GEDs and HiSETs with the “issued by Montana OPI” seal? If they’re a traditional Freshman, do you treat it like they graduated from a MT high school? Do you have them complete a residency questionnaire for all their parent’s information?
