Are you able to switch from paying out of state tuition to paying in state tuition after starting medical school? I had a friend who went to UT-Austin for undergrad from out of state, lived there over the summer working, and got in state tuition the next year. Is this something that is possible for medical school too (not necessarily just in Texas) or are you stuck paying out of state all four years if you start from out of state?

Yes, but this is state-dependent. Some states have lenient requirements and will allow you to be a resident after your first year while others won't grant you resident status at all. You'll need to look at the policies at the particular schools you're applying to to know for sure.

Right. When in MA, I believe that 5 years instate was a requisite.

Many states will refuse in-state tuition permanently if the reason you moved was for education....

Figure out where you want to apply, then go state-by-state to decide the $$ impact.
