I think some of us should be getting feedback pretty soon, within next couple of days.[/quote]
champ, that'd be awesome if that's true. do you mind me askin where you're getting that information?[/quote]
V. Duran
And looks like I was right about the feedback > just got dinged. Definitely not worth the 3+ months wait.
sorry to hear that champ! y'know, kind of cliche but when one door closes, another opens up.

Good luck to the ones still waiting![/quote]

I've talked to several McCombs students @ Texas Friday and they brought the residency issue up. I wasn't paying whole a lot of attention to it since I'd be considered in-state (but international) student; however, the students mentioned that they purchased small property (=land) in the middle of nowhere at the begging of their studies hoping to qualify for in-state tuition starting their second year.[/quote]
er...so even if student is a US citizen but from other states, he will not get in-state rate on 2nd year by just living and studying at McCombs for 12 months?
that makes big difference..

I was wondering the same problem, but after searching the internet and asked few students. you can buy a piece of Texas for $1000-$2000 dollars, with an annual tax of $40. There are few other ways you can become a resident:
1) own a property like i said
2) start a business, this can be a LLP
3) marry another texas resident
4) work a parttime job durnig the year (can be as low as 8 hours a week)
I am working on my option 1. I see that as an investment because you dont need to pay state income tax in Texas, AND, if you ended up working in other parts of the country, you can still claim your texas residency and avoid the high state tax.
Afterall, I think Texas' has so much potential with its economy. That's what makes me pick McCombs in the first place.
