drb…that depends on the state. Typically it takes a year to establish residency…so if the family moves, they would at least have to live in the new state for a year before residency is established. BUT in some states…if you are OOS when you matriculate, you remain that way until you graduate regardless of where your family lives. If you are instate for tuition purposes when you matriculate, you remain instate, regardless of where your parents live. BUT this varies by state. You need to check EACH STATE’S requirements. They sure do vary.
