I think there is more to it than that. I think the student has to live year-round in Missouri and work there as well. I think that they can only go home for short visits or something like that and they have to show “proof” that they were in the state during the whole time except for short visits (show receipts for purchases made at various intervals thru-out the summer.

(CBHE Rule) In determining whether a student holds an intent to make the state of Missouri a permanent home for an indefinite period, the following factors, although not conclusive, shall be given heavy weight: continuous presence in the state of Missouri during those periods not enrolled as a student; presence within the state of Missouri upon marriage to a Missouri resident and the maintenance of a common domicile with the resident spouse; substantial reliance on sources within the state of Missouri for financial support; former domicile within the state and maintenance of significant connections while absent; and ownership of a home within the state of Missouri. The twelve - (12) month period of presence within the state, as stipulated in paragraph p. 3.a. of this
rule, in and of itself, does not establish resident status in the absence of the required proof of intent.
