I've recently been accepted to UH Hilo and have a ton of questions about so many things involved within the process of relocating. The biggest of them, which will likely determine my ultimate decision are qualifications on gaining instate residency for tuition purposes. Is there any feasable scenario in which an unmarried student could move to a different state, attend school for one year while their significant other worked towards gaining residency, and then became married after that year to gain residency? I've been accepted to other programs however the possibility of going to school in Hilo is something that I can't over. That being said, the out of state tuition costs compounded with cost of living just seem to be staggering. If anyone has any experience in a similar situation I'd really appreciate the insight. Thanks in advance!
