Question about in/out of state tuition

Applying to College
1

<p>I grew up in Washington and attended a CC for a while when I was 16. I moved to live with my grandparents when I was 20 since my grandpa broke his back and I've been helping him out with repairing his house and going to stores while working a full time job. I'm now 21 and plan to stay here for about a year or two longer, however, Washington is my home and I really miss it. I plan to stay there for good after my Grandpa gets better and I finish my 2 year here. </p>

<p>Will living in MO for 2-3 years ruin my chances in receiving in-state tuition at UW or WSU? My dream college is actually Santa Clara, which is in CA, but I think I may choose UW if I'm accepted there for financial reasons.</p>

<p>PS: Anyone know if UW's CS program is hard to transfer into?</p>

<p>Each colleges’ website will have info on requirements for residency. Look under “bursars office” in each site. Different colleges, even within the same state, will have differing requirements.</p>
