Strange. I knew 2 people woth F2 visa who claimed to have got in with in state tuition in Ny and TX, one in each state

Something doesn’t add up. F-2 dependents are not allowed to enroll in college full-time, which leaves a few different options:

They did not disclose their visa status to the college they enrolled in.

They might have enrolled part-time, probably at a community college for cost reasons. I have encountered community colleges with a separate in-county rate, which was even lower than in-state tuition, and the in-county determination was made solely on physical presence.
