Depends on the university, but maybe see if you can get an off campus place and change your address to that place. But be sure to check with your university because I know some places have a timeframe for you to get in state tuition

if ur from any of these states and looking to go to school in one of those states, you can apply to pay in state tuition! its called WUE. if ur not from any of these places then maybe ur area has something similar!

Hi! So I was an out of state resident and now receive in state tuition. I got my license up here voter registration bought a car here got my registration done up here. I claim myself as an independent and kept a copy of my lease. After about a year of living here I filed to be financially independent and was able to receive in state!

Michigan lets students from its bordering states have in-state tuition (i think it depends on the schools policy tho 🤷🏻‍♀️)

Um… I asked for an out of state tuition waiver and my school said sure so I pay instate tuition. Ask if your school has something like that, they may have them through your school or your department.

as someone else mentioned you need to live in a state for 2 years before being counted as a resident. so in some cases you can defer your acceptance (this is where you're accepted into a school and basically take a gap year before starting) and move to that state right away. this would still leave you paying one year with out of state costs though

Just research your universities policy for requirements to live in state
