The time to be counted is right around the corner. So, as a college student, often with more than one address during the year, how will you be counted?
Your parents actually should not count you as living in their home (even if that is the case when you go home for the summer) because you have spent most of your time living at another address during the year. If you’re living in an apartment or house off-campus, you will be counted using the form that comes to your residence. However, if you are living in the dorms, you will be counted as a member of “group quarters.”
