Permit

Read a random definition: rule to show cause

A quick definition of Permit:

A permit is like a special permission slip that says you can do something. It's given by the government and you usually have to pay for it. For example, a gun permit lets you have a gun if you follow the rules.

A more thorough explanation:

A permit is an official document that allows someone to do something. It is usually issued by a government agency, such as a state or city, and requires a fee to be paid.

For example, a firearms permit allows the holder to buy, own, possess, or carry a firearm subject to certain conditions. Another example is a building permit, which allows someone to construct a building or make changes to an existing one.

These examples illustrate how a permit grants permission to do something that would otherwise be prohibited. Without a firearms permit, it would be illegal to own or carry a firearm. Without a building permit, it would be illegal to construct a building or make changes to an existing one.

@windyMagician: not at all. Michigan is also very generous with aid, so if you get enough it makes perfect sense to take it.

I’m sure you’ll get good merit aid though. Look at Michigan’s 509 report. They’re very generous.
