I've got my green card in October 2009. I have been in kentucky for more than 5 years (including time being on F-1 visa). I am working and paying tax for 3 years to today. And my husband is a Kentucky resident. So am I also considered as a Kentucky resident? Do I get in-state tuition in Kentucky if I go to university in Kentucky?

I am a little frustrated right now because I have to borrow loans to pay for my out-of-state tuition.

is there anyone know how to become a resident of a state? We don't own any property, except our cars.

Please reply. Thank you very much.

Check with the admissions office of your university. Usually, you only need to be living in a state for 6 months or 1 year to be considered a "resident", but universities often also have a requirement that you must have legal permanent resident status in the US to be considered a "resident" for tuition purposes. They may require that you be an LPR for 1 year before they consider you a resident. Because it depends on the state AND the university, I can't really look this up for you on the internet.

Financial Aid office gives me financial aid, but the bursar's office charges me even more :D

I will try to apply again this semester for the residency. Last fall, I applied with the green card pending. I think that was why I didn't get it.
