Hello, I am new to college confidential and I had a question.
I am going to be a freshman at CU Boulder this year, and I qualify for instate tuition right now. However, my parents are planning on moving, and because I’m 18 and financially dependent on them, I’m not sure if I will keep my instate status once the move. They own a house, both work here, and have lived here for the past 14 years. Will I lose my instate status if they move? If so, how can I keep it? What if only one of my parents moves?
Thanks for helping me.
If you sign a lease for off campus housing for sophomore year it may suffice to maintain your residency since they require full year leases in Boulder
Once your qualified for in state tuition your good to go for the entire 4-5 years it takes to graduate. IOW you don’t have to apply for in state status every year.
You may qualify for exceptions listed here:
