As quoted from the UCSD catalog on intention of establishing residency:
“Indications of your intent to make California yourpermanent residence can include the following: registering to vote and voting in California elections; designating California as your permanent address on all school and employment records, including military records if you are in the military service; obtaining a California driver’s license or, if you do not drive, a California Identification Card; obtaining California vehicle registration; paying California income taxes as a resident, including taxes on income earned outside California from the date you establish residence; establishing a California residence in which you keep your personal belongings; and licensing for professional practice in California.”

In short, yes, if your parents do move to California with you and plan to permanently live there. Also says that “you must demonstrate your intention to make California your home by severing your residential ties with your former state of residence and establishing those ties with California… Your intent will be questioned if you return to your former state of residence when the university is not in session.”

But really, how much time and money will you actually save by moving to California? It is a very complicated and LONG process that may very well take all four years to fully complete.
