Question

How long do you have to live somewhere to get in-state tuitions for college?

Answer 1

Guidelines are published by the school and/or the individual state. You MUST provide documentation, e.g., a drivers license. Check the student handbook or the university website.

Answer 2

It depends if you are dependent or independent which can also be a factor in being out of state or not

Answer 3

It varies from state to state, but be aware, simply living in the state (for any length of time) does not necessarily change your status to a resident of that state.
