Your best bet would be to move to California and work there for at least a year before enrolling anywhere. That is the only certain way to qualify for in-state tuition and fees. For specific policies on in-state residence, check the websites of the places that you are interested in.

For specific advice useful for a non-traditional age student, you really should contact the colleges/universities that you are interested in. Your situation is very different from that of the kinds of applicants who normally post here at CC. Much of the information that is useful to them will not matter at all in your situation.

Wishing you all the best!
