<p>If I am an out of state and live for 1 year in a certain state(or go to college for one year), will I become a resident and will the in-state fees apply to me from then onwards?</p>
<p>Depends on the state. What state you looking into? Usually a one year stay will not be enough to prove instate residency.</p>

<p>Usually NOT. In most cases, the state of residency for undergraduate students is the state in which their parents reside. Most states do not allow one to use time while attending college towards their residency requirement (in other words....if the criteria is that you live in the state for a year to become an instate resident, you can NOT be attending college while doing this). To become an instate resident, you would need to demonstrate that you are working in the state, and earning enough income to support yourself there, including all expenses (housing etc) and college costs. Just "living" in the state (while your parents from out of state support you) will not qualify you for instate tuition in most cases. And if your next question is "can I declare myself independent from my OOS parents?" The answer to that is also probably no.</p>
<p>ok thanks for the information guys</p>
