Residency reclassification at UF; do they ever do it? We will be a legit case for it

My daughter wants to go to UF. Our entire family plans to move to Florida immediately after my twins graduate high school. My son wants to work at Disney, my mother wants to retire there, and I just want to be someplace warm. So we are not moving for the purposes of going to school in Florida rather we started looking at schools in Florida because we know we are moving there. However she is not crazy about taking a year off. My thought is if she gets excepted into UF, that she could pay out-of-state tuition for the first year, and then get reclassified for the second year. I see that as an option and we truly will be Florida residents at that point but I’m not sure how often they reclassify. I would not want her to have to end up taking a year off in the middle to establish her residency (if hats even possible!) curious if anyone has had this situation.
