<p>Which state can a child claim for in state consideration on an application if the parents live apart in two different states?</p>
<p>I believe it’s the parent who claims the child on their taxes?</p>
<p>It varies from state to state. Best bet is to go to the website for the university system of both states and research the rules directly.</p>
<p>What state did they attend high school in?</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies. Attends high school in Maryland.</p>
<p>“It varies from state to state. Best bet is to go to the website for the university system of both states and research the rules directly.” Good point Carolyn! I found the info about the parent who claims the child on their tax returns on the UT Austin website.</p>
