Out of state tuiton is obviously through the roof. So if I get in to a out of state school, and pay out of state tuition for 1 year, but stay in that state... would that establish residency in that state so I would only have to pay in state tuition for the next 3 years? I'm not sure as to how that whole stuff works but is it possible for it work the way I stated?

This depends on the school. Many schools follow this or a similar guideline:
Classification of students as a non-resident shall be made at the time of their initial admission to the university and the non-resident status shall continue unchanged through all registrations at the university until and unless satisfactory evidence is provided supporting that the student's reason for coming to and remaining in the state has changed.
In other words:
An individual whose presence in the state is based on activities or circumstances that are indeterminate or temporary, such as (but not limited to) educational pursuits, will be presumed not to be domiciled [in-state] and will be classified as out-of-state.
So, look carefully at the regulations for any OOS public schools you're considering.

It's doable in some places like Nevada and California but I heard it's pretty difficult in places like Michigan.
Does anyone know about three Texas schools?
Do they allow us to establish residency after one year?
Do they allow us to establish residency after one year?
No They don't. I would still go to Texas as OOS.
Unlikely to get in OOS, not saying its impossible but chances are very, very slim.
This is interesting
The only reason I was allowed to apply as an instate resident was that I work and support myself and plan to live in Texas, so my schooling is "secondary" to my job. It's hard to get residency unless you move here for a job.
