Very Cheap Student Auto Insurance in Ohio
Reader’s Question:
I am a student North Carolina, and I am having the title on a vehicle transferred to me from my father who lives in Texas. I am from Lorain, Ohio. Does it matter where the automobile is registered for insurance purposes?

Since you are a nonresident in North Carolina it does not appear you need to register the vehicle in NC but can do so back in your home state in Lorain Ohio. If you instead wanted to register and title the car in North Carolina, you can verify with the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles to see if this is possible as a full-time student in their state.
As for auto insurance, you will need to insure the car in the state which the vehicle is registered since normally as part of the registration process one is required to show proof of auto insurance. If you title the vehicle in Ohio check to see if an insurance company will cover you while you are in North Carolina or if because the vehicle will be kept with you in North Carolina if they say you should insure and register it there instead until you move back to OH after college.
