<p>I moved to the United States on March 19, 2010. I chose to live in CA, and I've got my permanent resident card, which is also issued on Mar.19,2010. I have applied for UC for Fall 2011, but it seems that for UC's admission process, in order to be considered as a CA resident, I have to live at least one year in CA, so I don't know if in this case I will be considered in-state or out-of-state. Does anyone have any thoughts on that? Thank you!!</p>
<p>You should just call and ask. I know for UW they require a year of living in WA but there are exceptions like your family was relocated for a job but moving to the state to look for a job does not count. I’m not sure about UCs though</p>
