<p>Hi, I live in PA but my mom is a Florida resident of 4 years and I applied to UCF as out-of-state, not knowing that because of my mom's residency I could be considered as an in-state applicant. What should I do? Does this even matter?</p>
<p>Many people say that it is easier to get in if you are in-state. Contact the admissions department and ask them for their advice.</p>
