nope . . . unless you have family in whichever state the school is and you change your "permanent" address to that address and have all of your mail sent there . . . and you may have to get a driver's license in that state . . . but that doesn't guarantee anything
they often offer more financial aid for out-of-state students . . . good grades, high test scores, and good letters of recommendation can help you get scholarships, but they don't excuse you from being out-of-state
(i went to school out of state and got good grades my first semester and got a scholarship through my college that covered tuition past the in-state level - so basically, after the scholarship, i was paying in-state tuition)

If you live off-campus, you can legally change your residency to the state where your school is in. That will then qualify you for in-state. Usually you have live there for about a year before you can change, though, so you'll still have to pay out-of-state rates for at least the first year you're there.

as far as i know there is no way to get out of it that does not involve residency in some form or another.
