Question about In State tuition

Colleges and Universities A-Z Indiana University - Bloomington
1

Hello all. I have a question regarding how does in state tuition work at Indiana University.

For some background information, my family and I are US Citizens, living in a foreign country. After applying to colleges and reviewing my options, I have committed to IU-Bloomington. As of now, I am an out of state resident, as my parents currently have no state residency. They are planning on moving with me to Bloomington, if not immediately, than at most in a few months. My question is, how soon after they move to Indiana can I claim in state tuition? Can it be right in the second semester? Or will it only be in the next year? If in the second semester, how do I go about claiming residency? Again, my parents don’t have a state residency currently, so I am assuming that the process of actually gaining residency in Indiana should be fast.

Thanks for the link, @dadof1 . I’ve been through it, but again, the problem I’m facing is that I/m not sure if my case would be an exception, as my parents don’t have a residency status from any state as of now.
