Am I In State or Out of State?

<p>I was born in FL where all of my family lives. My parents moved up north when I was in middle school. I always had this idea that I would go to community college for 2 years and try to transfer into a University. However, seeing as I don't live in FL anymore I would be out of state.
I plan on moving home after I graduate high school (my parents want to move home as well). My teacher said there were ways to get around the out of state tuition if you had family members that lived in that area. The Community College I wanted to go to is only miles away from my sisters house, but my teacher didn't go through specifics.
Could someone explain to me how the In State or Out of State would apply to me or share some information about websites I could look into? I am researching as well. I would be extremely thankful.</p>

<p>Unless you moved as part of a military move, you are out of state. If your entire family moves back you may be able to re-establish residency. If only you move back, there are other requirements.</p>

<p>There are no ways of “getting around” the instate residency requirements. The schools have guidelines in place for determining residency. </p>

<p>If you are a HS senior now, and your parents and you reside in a state other than Florida, you are NOT residents of Florida. </p>

<p>You need to carefully read the requirements for establishing residency on EACH college website as in some states this varies from school to school.</p>

<p>Do you know if your parents or grandparents ever invested in the Florida Prepaid College Fund on your behalf? If so, that guarentees that you get in-state tuition.</p>

<p>My children have Florida Prepaid plans purchased when we lived there. Now we live in California, but if one wants to go to FSU, UCF, UF or any other Florida public schools, they can with in-state tuition.</p>
