Attention College Students

Students have two options for which elections they want to participate in, and how they would like to vote.

• Students may wish to claim your school/dorm as their residence address. If doing so the student must register in the county in which they will be residing. They may then participate in elections under that political jurisdiction.
• Register at Home: If your home address is in the state of Texas, you may use the online Voter Registration Form, or use the links to request a form be mailed to you.
