<p>I'm transferring to Ohio State from California for the winter semester (Jan 10)</p>
<p>I expect to pay out of state tuition because I am an OOS student at the moment. Though I'm curious that since I'm moving to the state (my permanent address will be Ohio), my drivers license will be Ohio, I will have a job in Ohio so I will be paying taxes in Ohio, etc. </p>
<p>After a year or two (Junior or Senior Year) and after I've been a resident of the state of Ohio for over a year can I request for in state tuition? </p>
<p>Considering that my permanent address would be Ohio and I'll be a dependent in Ohio wouldnt that make me a resident to the school. </p>
<p>I have no problem paying OOS for the year it takes me to establish residency, but if I'm paying taxes in the state it would **** me off a little.</p>
<p>I believe that after a year, you can change to paying in-state tuition, assuming of course that you have the proper documentation to prove your residency.</p>
<p>In most states, unless you’re 24, you are a resident of whatever state your parents live in. Many state schools also have a rule that if you start school as an OOS student, you’ll always be one.</p>
<p>Some state will allow under 34s to become residents, but in all of the cases I’m aware of, you can not go to school during the year you are establishing residency. You must work and prove you fully support yourself. Typically you must also prove that your parents have not claimed you on their taxes for 2 years prior to your seeking residency.</p>
<p>So check Ohio’s laws. Most schools have the info on their web sites.</p>
