To establish residence you must be physically present in California for more than one year and you must have come here with the intent to make California your home, as opposed to coming to this state to go to school. Physical presence within the state solely for educational purposes does not constitute the establishment of California residence, regardless of the length of your stay. You must demonstrate your intention to make California your home by severing your residential ties with your former state of residence and establishing those ties with California. If these steps are delayed, the one year durational period will be extended until you have demonstrated both presence and intent for one full year. If your parents do not meet the requirements for residence for tuition purposes, or you were not previously enrolled as a UC student, you are required to be financially independent in order to be a resident for tuition purposes. Your residence cannot be derived from your spouse or your parents.
For toher purposes it is 90 days and get a license. THe license is a key.

Check your college catalog and look under admissions and residency requirements. The U.S. Constitution affords every person equal protection. In general, residency is almost instantaneous. You are afforded certain protections and services from the point that you declare yourself a resident of a particular state. There is no absolute answer to your first question however, because laws vary depending on the specific circumstance. The issue of residency and jurisdiction is complex; at least one of the colleges here in California requires one year of residency for school.

The California Community Colleges (CCC) and the California State University (CSU) apply rules set by State statute in determining students' residency status for tuition purposes, while the University of California (UC) has developed a separate and stricter set of residency rules.

It usually depends on the school/institution. After moving to AZ I had to wait 60 days to be classified as a resident in order to go to school. Ask the school you are interested in about the residential requirements - it does vary from state to state also. Some are even 6 months. I wish you well in your studies. Goodluck!

It is usually six months. You could call the specific college's admissions office to find their policy on how they determine what tuition rate you recieve. Good Luck!
