This seems to be the first I've seen of the type (I can very well be wrong), but Ohio just passed a program giving permanent Ohio residency (which includes for med school) to all their high school graduates (http://www.independentcollegian.com....TvyEUbR56Jw.like&fb_source=profile_multiline).
Right now, I'm filling out the paperwork to save me quite a bit of money on med school. The idea looks fairly reasonable. Try to attract your educated population back into the state, if it's losing out on growth. I think that this might possibly spread to many other midwestern states.
So, it looks like a new way to have multiple residency status for medical school. It may or may not affect instate for application purposes for the "permanent state residents" (I could see some schools counting them as instate). But, I could certainly see obsessed premeds going to high school at a "permanent resident" state, then going to college somewhere else to try to establish 2x the instate chances 😉
