This might be a stupid quedtion so if it I apologize before hand. But I just wanted to know...

I am a Texas resident. If I go to college for undergrad outside of Texas and then apply to Texas dental schools, will I still be seen as a Texas resident? Or as a resident of where I school? If it makes a difference my parents are in Texas too... Thanks!

Unless you went out of your way to become a resident of the new state---for example change your license, registration, buy a house there---you would still be a Texas resident. As a kid going to college who still depends on your parents, it's difficult to shake the residency of your parents' state.
