    LL> Which brings up an interesting question -   
      
    LL> How long does it take to become a resident of a state?   
      
   Many states put the threshold at one year.  Plus, living in the state   
   for the purposes of going to school does not count.   
      
   I mostly grew up in Florida and graduated from high school there.  At   
   that time the state universities gave automatic admission to anyone who   
   graduated from a Florida high school, plus had a tuition of $50 per   
   year.  Of course, that tuition is much higher now, almost $6,400 for in   
   state and just over $28,000 for out of state.  Although they had   
   guarenteed admission, they did not guarentee that you would not flunk   
   out before the end of the first semester -- and supposedly 2/3rds of   
   them did just that.  I have no idea what their policy is today.
