It's all here in this report. You can see it for yourself. Look at Table 10. One caveat...UMDNJ gives in-state status to anyone who has a lease and a driver's license, so their stats are screwed.

Thanks for this link!

Does this caveat apply also to OSU or to MSU? Can a person easily acquire in-state for either of these public schools?

MSU's rules for in-state status are kind of "wishy-washy." They say that you don't necessarily have to have lived in the state for a year if you can prove that you intend to remain there as a resident. However, they also say that just living there for a year is not necessarily good enough either. But, I understand that you can pretty much re-petition for in-state status at any time. OSU's rules are tougher. They require a year of living in the state, but much like Texas, they also say that it cannot be a year as a full-time student. You have to have been gainfully employed during that year. To my knowledge, there is no other place as easy as UMDNJ about aquiring in-state status.

I don't think any of them accept that many OOS students.

I don't think any of them accept that many OOS students.

Granted, not all of these are state schools, but the following list accepted more than 50% out-of-state students according to the latest statistics available:

ATSU/KCOM
AZCOM
CCOM
DMU-COM
KCUMB-COM
LECOM
PCSOM
TUCOM
UNECOM
VCOM
WVSOM

Out of ALL the students accepted to osteopathic schools, there were more OOS students than in-state.

I haven't experienced any "wishy-washy" rules for non-resident matriculants to the college. I'm a non-resident, so my tuition and fees are that of a non-resident no matter the actions I take following matriculation. If I was a resident for a year before matriculating, I'd be a resident and allowed in-state tuition/fees.
There is a non-resident scholarship, which is growing more competitive with the increase in class size. That has helped me, but it doesn't not decrease the amount to that of the in-state tuition/fees. However, the $15000 scholarship is only available for the first two years, not the third and fourth.
If you sign a contract for an in-state internship, I've been told a couple times that they will retroactively credit your account for in-state tuition. So they will refund your tuition/fees back to that of a resident. I haven't completely verified this, but I recall this being the case.
It's a great school, I enjoy the classes and feel I'm getting a superb education. My classmates are great and the administration care, although they aren't always as open as we'd like. Still, you'll be paying a lot to go here from out-of-state.
Hope that helps.

I have a question.... I'm still consider an instate student for UMDNJ. I was born and raise in NJ went to high school and college in NJ but moved to GA about a year ago.

Ok, last time, really

EVERYONE IS IN STATE IN NJ AS LONG AS YOU HAVE A LEASE/ADDRESS IN NJ AND AN NJ LICENSE

now captain, with your history of going to an NJ high school, I know you'll have access to scholarships that others originally from out of state aren't, and that may go for your college as well.
