Are there any ways to cut cost when going to an out-of-state college?
I am from Michigan and have lived here all of my life. I want to go to Georgia to go to college and already have a few picked out. As in many states the cost to go to the college if coming from a different state is twice what the in-state attendy would be paying. Are there any ways to bring that cost down? Other than student loans and scholorships.

You could try to get in-state residency. But to do that most states will require you live and work in the state **without going to school** before that will be granted. Georgia is one such state. You can review the residency policy information there at

or go to any website’s of the Georgia schools you are interested in and search for “in-state residency” and I’m sure it will be there.
You can also try to obtain some outside scholarships:

Talk to a financial aid officer at the school(s) you wish to apply to for more information. Best of luck to you! Go Spartans!!

The only way to cut down on these costs IS to get a scholarship or some sort of other financial aid. You can apply for residency, but generally you will not be considered in-state unless you have a parent that lives in the state or if you are only coming to the state for college. Otherwise, everyone could call themselves an in-state resident.
