Can you use a relatives address to get in state tuition fees from an out of state college?

I want to go to the University of Oregon, but I live in California and can't afford the out of state tuition fees. My grandmother lives in Oregon and I want to know if it's allowed to use a relatives address to receive the in state tuition fees from the U of O.

    U probably could, but you could also probably get in trouble for it if they find out if your not living there. I would never lie on anything like that. Are you going to be living with her if you go to school there...maybe talk to the school about it if that is the situation. I think in most states you have to have lived there for a lil while before you can claim instate tuition.

    No. When (not if) you are found out, you will be hit with a bill for the full out of state rates. And if you don't pay, you may be charged with fraud. Most states require you to have graduated from high school there to start as an in-state freshman. Having a California high school diploma is a give away.

    i'm undecided the place to procure the techniques, in spite of the incontrovertible fact that that is not any longer remarkable. in case you enter a college as a non-resident, your expenditures would be assessed as a non-resident for the completed time you're enrolled. right this is the thinking: in case you grew up in the state, your father and mother have been paying taxes all alongside that help defray the value of education in a public employer. while you're coming in from yet another state, that contribution has no longer been made and you may desire to make it up by utilizing paying the better rates for an out-of-state pupil. Attending classification for one 12 months does no longer something to assist defray the rate, so which you pay expenditures as a non-resident pupil for the dimensions of your education in that school. evaluate too, that if non-resident pupils have been granted in-state status after one 12 months, no one might pay out-of-state expenditures for greater advantageous than one 12 months. that isn't the way it works. in case you pick to pay in-state expenditures and you probably did no longer graduate severe college in California, the suitable thank you to end that is to relocate to California and set up residency. stay there, get a activity, sign up your motor vehicle there, pay taxes, have utilities on your call, sign up to vote, etc. finding on the college's regulations, you could properly be waiting to get common as a resident after a era of a minimum of 12 months. you could desire to be waiting for example which you have grow to be a resident for the sake of changing right into a resident, no longer for the sake of decrease training rates. that is as much as the college how they choose to interpret those efforts. no count in case you initiate in a junior college or 4-12 months college, you would be assessed out-of-state expenditures. All public establishments that place self assurance in state investment have in-state training rates and better rates for out-of-state pupils.
