Parents Forum

Hi ,
I am posting this question on behalf my brother in India.

My brother’s son got admissions to UT Arlington and Texas A&M for BS Computer Science as F1 international student from India.
No aid offered.

Both parents are in India and has no plans of moving here.

Is there a path for the dependent student on F1 Visa , to gain Texas Residency and qualify for instate tuition after spending one year as undergraduate student in Texas to lower the tuition fee ?

It’s almost impossible for a US citizen to get residency in another state to get in state tuition.

This is an item to file under “if it were that easy, everyone would do it.”

Regardless, for privacy reasons, long-standing College Confidential policies state you can post on behalf of yourself or your dependent children. Everyone else needs to use their own account to post. Closing
