<p>Canadian born/citizen but living in the US for over 10 years in the same state. Under Green card process. My question is that since I'm not technically a permanent resident, but although am a resident of the state, would I qualify for in-state tuition? Also, would this mean that I would have to apply as a foreign applicant in that specific pool? I'm worried that if our green card doesn't come in time, it'll be harder for me to get into the desired schools of my choice.</p>
<p>The requirements to be considered in-state for tuition purposes vary by state. You will get the most reliable answer directly from the public university of your choice.</p>
<p>For need-based financial aid purposes, you are considered a foreign student until you have your green card in hand.</p>
