My goal is to apply to UT at Austin as a freshman this upcoming fall. I live in Missouri but noticed that it is nearly impossible to get in as an OOS. My family owns a home and business in TX. I pay taxes in Texas, however, my high school diploma will come from Missouri. Is there any way I can receive in-state with my credentials?
If you were not a residence of Texas you will be considered OOS. You pointed out that you live in Missouri but you paid taxes in Texas. How does not work.
