<p>Hey guys, Im pretty excited about UCLA. GO BRUINS!!!</p>
<p>Some of my friends who are attending other public universities as OOS students say that if your grades are good enough, you get to pay in-state tuition rates even though you are OOS. </p>
<p>Can anyone tell me if UCLA does this?</p>
<p>UCLA does not do that.</p>
<p>so no matter how excellent you are at UCLA, there is no way for an OOS student to get in-state tuition?</p>
<p>Yeah there's a way to get in-state tuition... you have to file taxes as an independent in the state of California for 1-2 years (I think it depends on the UC but for sure it's at least one year) and show that you can support yourself. Or, you can get married to a California resident and/or have a child in CA. This [url=<a href="http://www.registrar.ucla.edu%5Dsite%5B/url">http://www.registrar.ucla.edu]site[/url</a>].</p>
<p>What if I apply as a dependent of a California resident and an employee of UCLA?</p>
<p>Wherever state your parents file their taxes (and list you as a dependent), you are a resident of that state. </p>
<p>Did you not read the IS/OOS faq on that site?</p>
