LL> Both Louisiana and Georgia have free college tuition for students.
LL> Let's say you, or one of your kids, wants to go to college but
LL> cannot afford to do so. Your state does not offer free college
LL> tuition, but other states do. Moving to another state would solve
LL> that problem, although one would still have to pay room and board -
LL> which is what dormitories and cafeterias are for.
LL> To get around the out of state tuition problem, all one would
LL> have to do is become a resident of the state. Doing chores in
LL> exchange for a place to stay should do it.
LL> Which brings up an interesting question -
LL> How long does it take to become a resident of a state?
Many states put the threshold at one year. Plus, living in the state
for the purposes of going to school does not count.
I mostly grew up in Florida and graduated from high school there. At
that time the state universities gave automatic admission to anyone who
graduated from a Florida high school, plus had a tuition of $50 per
year. Of course, that tuition is much higher now, almost $6,400 for in
state and just over $28,000 for out of state. Although they had
guarenteed admission, they did not guarentee that you would not flunk
out before the end of the first semester -- and supposedly 2/3rds of
them did just that. I have no idea what their policy is today.
