Serious question...not to be a smartass....but how does one claim residency in a state they are going to college in? (say VT)
I keep hearing this from people about doing that for my kids.....but from what I read, it’s not possible....at least in VT.
Anybody have any info on this?

Usually be able to prove you've lived in that state for 12 prior months through income taxes or DL.
Seems like this year would be a great gap year for people to go ski bum and establish residency.

Used to be so easy when I went to Missoula. Worked in town one summer, walked into the registrar with a few check stubs and she was like, okay, sure.
Not anymore. They need those outta state bucks big time.

Sweet tip, thx.
For a while in the 80s some of the folks on my AK fire crew were wintering in Bozeman. I’d go hang out and ski at BB. Seemed really nice, Glenn Close’s sister was running the Leaf & Bean (double-take, looked like GC), or whatever that was, and Russell Chatham’s paintings were cheap. I should have bought a house, but at $10k they seemed too pricey. I was a fool.
MSO is too overcast in winter. Stay away.

Thx...yeah, that’s the doc I read that killed the residency idea.....but people kept mentioning it to me...so I figured maybe there was a double secret probation residency program that knowledgeable mags knew about.
Friends kids currently all go to U of U and Utah State...and they all got residency pretty easily...so it definitely varies by school/state.

Establishing residency is usually much easier for grad school, but for undergrad, they assume you are still on your parents' dime, and make it MUCH harder.

Back when I was at CU I had to declare emancipation and get parents to funnel my tuition through some other account to prove I was independent. I was able to get in-state my sophomore year and saved a ridiculous amount of money. My student loans still suck even with in-state. This was in 08.
Shortly after that I started seeing chalk advertisements for a company who helped you go through the process and then I heard they changed the law to make it extremely difficult.
I also skied a shit load and traffic was not bad at all. Man, the front range has changed. Going to CU was the best decision I ever made.

There's no workaround in Vermont. 3 years prior to 1st kid entering and establishing residency is not as easy as just having a vacation home in the state. BITD entering classes at UVM had to be at least 50% in-state. Then they got greedy and did away with that rule to rake in the bucks from the trustafarians from Greenwich.
Very true. My daughter went to grad school in Mobile, AL. To establish residency she got a library card on a trip to find an apartment 2 months before she started. It was that easy...

Middlebury. Decent school, you have your own little hill just to get quick turns, and pretty good choices in Vermont within, at the most, an hour.

Lot of good advice in here, but 2 things I would mention. College is fun because you are in college, smaller college towns amplify that. Skiing is fun, but ski-towns amplify that. Being around like minded people in concentration is a great experience
I love Salt Lake, went to High school there and lived there again in my 20s but not a college or ski town, although it has colleges and great skiing nearby.
Your life, your experience, my 3 pennies short for Change for a Nickel.
edit, to add look into places that support a semester or a year abroad. I loved my time in Scotland, but kicked myself for not skiin on the Continent more. In hindsight could have studied in Austria, Swisstown France, etc. Or Japan for that matter.

Man... if it was me, I'd just plan on moving every 6 months to somewhere new. I found Flag to be entertaining when I lived there for a few months way back when (wouldn't want to live there permanently, but it's a cool place). Summer rolls around... head north. You ever been to the Canadian Rockies? Assuming things are "sorta normal" by next summer, that would be high on my list of locations.
Also - 05:45MST is 13:45CEST in Zurich... just throwing that out there. And Europe, generally speaking, has really good internet.

Well, look at the crowd mentioned otherwise. It ain't exactly the Ivy League.
