College tuition?

Question

If a person moves to another state, does that mean they pay the "non-resident tuition"?

Answer 1

in most cases, yes. It usually takes a year to establish residency. you have to contact the office of registration on this issue. they will have a better info.

Answer 2

Okay, here is the deal! Education (fortunately) is partly subsidized by the state government. So if you go to a community college and pay only like $5 per unit, the actual cost may be $200 per unit but you pay the $5 and your state pays the other $195 for you. Now obviously, each state wants to benefit only their own residents therefore they only subsidize your education if you are a resident of that state otherwise you have to pay the full price. So in order to get the subsudized price, you must become a resident of the state and different states have different qualifications. I know that in the state of California, you need to live here for two years, before you can be considered a resident. Some others migh only require six months or something.

Answer 3

Some states give you "in state" tuition if they have resoprocity. Minnesota and Wisconsin do, as does Arizona and California. But if they do not have that, then yes, you have to pay out of stat tuition if you are not a resident of that state for at least 1 year.

Answer 4

Depends on the state or college, but it usually takes 6 months to establish residency.
