Can my child pay in-state tuition and fees in California, if I move there and establish residency? Thank you.

annswers asked:He is still in high school. If my company transferred me to California, and I established residency at least one year before my child enters college, would he be eligible to pay in-state tuition and fees? He will finish high school in another state (where his father lives). Thank you.

The answer to this really depends on the school. Some only accept the state where the child actually resides, some don’t. You need to figure out where he’s wanting to go to college and look up their rules.

Well, a lot of people fudge the truth in this area. The school may notice that your son is a new HS graduate and graduated in a different state.
If you are lucky, maybe California will grant him the same in-state rights which they grant illegal immigrants.
But I somehow doubt it. -

I believe that your son is the one who must establish residency in California to quality for in-state tuition at those colleges. This usually means he has to physically live there for a period of time (I think it’s six months, but it could be a year), so he will have to transfer high schools and graduate in California if he wants to attend a college right after graduating. Or he could move to California after graduating in another state and work for a year.
It doesn’t matter who actually writes the checks for his fees, you or his father. HE is the one who is given the bill based upon HIS residency. His parents’ residency means nothing.
