I am currently temporarily staying with my grandmother in CA. I am also attending high school here. However, my mom remains in UT and so do most of my belongings.

Basically, my permanent address is in UT, not in the same state as my high school in CA, which is my mailing address.

I know that geographic location matters somewhat to private schools. Will I be considered as an applicant from CA or UT? What determines these things? Permanent address? High School address? ...?

(i also know that schools have regional admissions officers. who would process mine?)
