I am currently a Massachusetts state resident, but have not been one long enough to be eligible to apply to UMass.
My parents are splitting up and my dad will most likely be relocating to California while my mom stays in Mass.
Since I would still be my parents dependent would it be a good idea to switch to being a California resident? I know this sounds like a no-brainer given my lack of eligibility for Umass, but would being a Cali resident put me a disadvantage for schools in other parts of the country. I've heard that Cali applicants aren't liked very much outside of their state.
