I'm pretty sure that this is a "no", and am probably going to sound stupid for asking 🙄 sorry. But anyway, if your family owns land in a state, is there any way to get in-state tuition..? For example, we have a lake house in missouri, and I'm really interested in washington university... and it'd be pretty nice to pay 1/3 as much as the out of state tuition, heh. But anyway.. I think you do have to actually live there, but thought I'd see if anyone knew for sure.. thanks!

🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 seeing how Washington University is a private school, it really won't make a difference.

Huh?

No, you probably cannot be considered a state resident for tuition purposes. Each state's system will do this slightly differently but it would include things like paying taxes/working in that state, length of residence, is your license/car registered in that state, etc. But... WashU isn't a state school and has no such differences for in- or out-of-state tuition...? Really, really confused...
 
You have to declare on your AMCAS your state of residence. You are going to have a hard time convincing Mercer, "Look, I know that I wrote that I'm from Florida, but you have to believe me. I'm really from Georgia."
