Will this effect the way colleges view me?

I’m moving to Texas for my senior year to live with my grandmother. I will be graduating from a Texas high school. Will colleges look at me as a Texas resident?

For resident tuition rates for Texas public colleges, google the Texas residency requirements.

For private colleges, they only care about whatever “home” address you choose to use.

You will have to check with each school
