<p>Not sure I know exactly what you are asking, but there are two parts to my answer -

  1. No, they won’t give you much of an advantage in terms of admission (In almost all cases)
  2. Yes, you will be far more eligible for substantial merit aid if you qualify by staying in state. </p>

<p>There are exceptions to both of these (National Merit Scholars is a good example where you may qualify for just as much money out of state). But generally speaking, these two are what you will find. </p>

<p>Of course, out of state tuition is a really big deal and in many cases you may have more trouble getting into an out of state school.</p>
