<p>For example, is it possible to be considered "in state" at UCD or UCSD but get the big bill at UCLA and UCB?</p>
<p>Also, are CSU schools generally easier to establish residency with compared to UC schools?</p>
<p>Just something that has been bugging me. Thank you!</p>
<p>The residency requirement is the same for the entire CSU and UC systems. It's one year of residence in-state before the determination date of the application.</p>
<p>Here are the links:</p>
<p>UC Site:
University</a> of California - Admissions</p>
<p>CSU Site:
CSUMentor</a> - Plan for College - Transfer Students - Residency Classification</p>
<p>Yep, that is correct.</p>
