Hello folks,
Title sums up my question pretty well; Is it possible to file AADSAS as a dual resident of California and Puerto Rico?
I am currently living in San Diego but I will be 'moving' to PR this summer and applying to dental school the following year. By 'moving' I mean that I will maintain a permanent address in Puerto Rico from this summer until I apply to dental school next summer but, I will be going to school at San Diego State University in California and paying resident tuition there during that time. My priority is getting into the dental program at the University of Puerto Rico but, it'd be nice to also have CA residency on the AADSAS as I believe UCSF and UoP (my top choices in CA) both favor CA residents. I am a current CA resident and have been for 4 years. The University of Puerto Rico openly favors residents so I'm planning to establish residency this summer (1 year prior to applying) by purchasing a condo and getting a PR driver's license so that I'll be able to apply with that advantage.
Does anyone know if I will be able to apply as a PR resident despite attending SDSU for 2 semesters after getting the PR driver's license and home address? When I moved to CA they required proof of 1 year residency to be considered a resident for tuition purposes, that's why I'm planning to buy the condo a year early.
Any thoughts/suggestions/ideas/input are welcome and appreciated.
Any info about what is officially considered "residency" by the University of Puerto Rico would also be much appreciated.
Thank you.
