  1. No, sorry. No state's colleges do that.

    In general, in order to be considered an in-state student, you need to have lived in the state for X period of time (a year or longer, depending on the state), and to have not moved there for educational purposes.  


  2. No, to become an in-state student you must live 24/7/365 in the state WITHOUT being in school (and change all your stuff to SC, as well as pay SC taxes) and then petition to the school to change your status. The whole point of in-state tuition is to reward the students who have been paying taxes to that state, thus reap the benefits. If it changed after the first year, there would be no out-of-state students beyond the freshman year.  

  3. My son at age 25 had not lived with me for many years, moved to another state, does not live with me over the summer, pays his own income taxes there, votes and registered his car there, but the state college would not classify him as in-state because I still provided about 1/3 of his expenses.
