So, I'm a non-trad about to start pre-reqs part time as my wife is in professional school here in Michigan until 2023. When she's done, she really wants us to be on the West Coast, preferably in California where her family is located. I'm well aware that Cali schools are very difficult to get into in state and that this is probably not the most optimal of decisions, but unfortunately, she disagrees. How do schools determine residency status? I've looked up how the UCs determine eligibility for undergrad in state tuition, but there doesn't seem to be anything specific for the medical schools for the purpose of residency.
Ideally, I would apply 2023 for matriculation in 2024. Would I need to have an official place of residence in California >365 days from my matriculation date, or during my application period for me to be considered California resident? I would be working full time as a RN in California until matriculation to meet the financial criteria, of course.
