So, I was thrilled to find out this last weekend that I’d been accepted into UCSD for Engineering, and view it as a strong option for me. However, while I am an OOS applicant, I now have a parent employed by the UC system. As we understood it, this meant that I was to be considered a California resident for FA purposes, but my FA offer is still showing the OOS tuition rate. Would/will they change this, or should I call? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
@Emily97 Call UCSD FA - they are very helpful. My daughter’s mom has also moved to CA so I had to call them to confirm instate regulations as well since we were in a similar situation. They will probably need proof of the parent’s UC employment etc etc. From what little I read, you should be considered instate
@khanam Thanks! I’ll probably have my parents call then, hopefully it’ll work out.
best of luck. it could just have been an oversight on UCSD’s part.
