<p>The last part of your sentence is incorrect. One needs a year of living in California, true, but one can take classes at a juco (and pay OOS fees), and after a year obtain residency for the purposes of instate tuition (at the same juco, or Cal State or UC).</p>

<p>Alright, excuse me for not understanding as quickly as you expected me to. I came here looking for answers and I’m happy that you were able to help me. I’m trying my hardest to learn all of these things beforehand so that I don’t walk in to the situation blindly come senior year.</p>
<p>The conclusion I’ve come to from your info is that the smartest and most financially friendly choice is to attend a juco for a year and then transfer. It sounds like a great idea and I will do more research on the subject. Do you have any recommendations for juco’s in California? </p>

Yes, she’s going to continue to attend as an in-state student. She is dependent on my parents and is younger than 24 yrs old. Is there some sort of benefit of this to me?</p>
<p>I was just curious as to the logistics of one child attending school as a Washington resident while another attends school as a California resident.</p>

<p>Yea, it’s not very typical but my sister loves Seattle and UW and wants to finish her pre-med here instead of California.</p>
