No it does not. If it did, California would have 60 million people living here, and half of them trying to go to school.If you live here as a student, you have to meet certain qualifications in order to be considered for California residency, and ultimately, as I am assuming you are asking, for California Resident tuition rates.Here is the link for the criteria Criteria to Establish Residence for Tuition Purposes. In addition, I have copied and pasted this information below. One of the biggest requirements is that you have to be considered financially independent. That doesn’t mean living hand to mouth, there are requirements for that too. Read below, and then reconsider your move.If you are getting a master’s, and you are over 24, you may be considered financially independent, but there is the minimum 366 days of residency you have to wait before you are considered a California resident, which includes a litany of different items, like registering your car, having a valid address (not PO Box), etc…______________________________ ( material below is from the University of California, San Diego website._____________Criteria to Establish Residence for Tuition PurposesLast Updated: July 31, 2015 1:56:53 PM PDTGive feedbackLearn about UC's criteria for determining who is a California resident for tuition purposes.Who is a California resident?If you are an adult student (at least 18 years old), you can establish residence for tuition purposes in California if:You are a U.S. citizenYou are a permanent resident or other immigrant, orYou are a nonimmigrant who is not precluded from establishing a domicile in the United States. Nonimmigrants who are not precluded from establishing domicile in the U.S. include those who hold valid visas of the following types: A, E, G, H1, H4, I, K, L, O1, O3, R, or VYou have been conferred lawful presence in the U.S. through Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and hold an approved I-821D.To establish residence for tuition purposes, you must satisfy 3 conditions:Physical presenceIntent to become a California residentFinancial independence1) Physical presenceYou must be physically present in California for more than one year (366 days) immediately prior to the residence determination date of the term for which resident classification is requested. You must have come here with the intent to make California your home as opposed to coming to this state to go to school.Physical presence within the state solely for educational purposes doesn't constitute the establishment of California residence, regardless of the length of your stay. Continuous physical presence isn't mandatory, but a student who leaves California after establishing residence must demonstrate that he/she intended to remain a California resident, and that his/her principal place of residence has been in California. It's the burden of the student to clearly demonstrate retention of California residence during periods of absence from the state.The physical presence requirement will be extended until the student can demonstrate a concurrence of both physical presence and intent for one full year.Back to top2) Intent to become a California residentDemonstrate through objective documentation that your physical presence was coupled with the intent to make California your permanent home. Intent is evaluated as an independent element of residence, separate from physical presence, and is demonstrated by establishing residential ties in California, and relinquishing ties to the former place of residence.You must demonstrate your intention to make California your home by severing your residential ties with your former state of residence and establishing those ties with California. If these steps are delayed, the one-year duration period will be extended until you have demonstrated both presence and intent for one full year.Indications of your intent to make California your permanent residence include:California driver's license or a California ID CardVoter registration card or affidavit from Registrar of VotersCalifornia-based bank accounts or CA branches based in other statesCalifornia car registration and car insurance cardPaying California income taxes as a resident, including taxes on income earned outside CaliforniaHousing contracts, monthly rental agreements, lease or proof of property ownershipCredit and memberships with California merchants, religious affiliations, clubs, gymsProof of your belongings moved into California such as moving van, bill of ladingProof of utilities established in your name such as phone, gas, electric, and cable TVDesignating California as your permanent address on all school, employment, and/or military recordsThe absence of these indicia in other states during any period for which you claim residence can also serve as an indication of your intent. Your intent will be questioned if you return to your former state of residence when the university is not in session. Documentary evidence is required and all relevant indications will be considered in determining your classification.Back to top3) Financial independenceStudents under age 24 who didn't attend the university prior to fall 1993 and are not dependent on a California resident parent who meets the university's requirements for residence for tuition purposes (one year physical presence with intent to remain in the state), also must meet the university's financial independence requirement in addition to the 366-day physical presence and intent requirements.Note: This requirement makes it extremely difficult for most undergraduates who do not have a parent living in California to qualify for classification as a resident at a UC campus. This includes transfer students from community colleges and other post-secondary schools in California.Effective winter 2005, registered domestic partners are included in rules that apply to spouses.You are considered financially independent if you meet all of the following criteria. You:Are unmarried, andStudent was not claimed as an income tax dependent by any individual for the two tax years immediately preceding the term for which resident classification is requested, andStudent is self-sufficient. He has supported himself for two full years prior to the residence determination date of the term he proposes to attend the University through his own resources, such as employment, commercial/institutional loans in his name only, financial aid and saving from earnings, all of which require official documentation (note: the two years required for self-support might not coincide with the two tax years he must not have been claimed by any individual). Budget Worksheet (PDF) To verify financial independence (self-sufficiency/ self-support), the student must document his or her income and verify that he or she was not claimed as an exemption by parents or anyone else for the two years prior to the request for residence.The student is also required to present a budget showing how he or she is able to be supported by the funds claimed.Self-support is defined as money which can be officially documented that the student has earned through his or her own employment, commercial loans, financial aid, savings and/ or other loans obtained with the student's own credit, without a cosigner. Parent PLUS loans cannot be considered self-support.Loans or gifts from relatives, associates, or friends, regardless of the terms, are considered financial assistance and cannot be included as student income when determining self-support. Non-institutional loans or funds that are “gifted” to the student by a relative, associate, or friend, through a “college fund,” savings, trust, or other financial vehicle, will not be considered if the funds were established after the student’s 14th birthday.If the student's income is a trust account established prior to the student’s 14th birthday, the student must also verify that he or she has complete control of the trust, that the funds available at the time of origination were sufficient to allow the student to be entirely self-supporting, and that the trust has been in use to support the student. Copies of yearly beginning balances, withdrawals, deposits, and ending balances of the trust account(s) will be required. Non-verifiable income cannot be considered.Residing in California with an aunt, uncle, grandparent, or friend who provides the student with room and board cannot be considered self-support, even if that person meets the UC residence requirement. "Bartering" for free room and board or other services or necessities will be considered financial assistance.The financial independence requirement will not be a factor in residence determination if you are a student who is financially dependent upon a California resident parent who meets the university's requirements for residence for tuition purposes (one year physical presence with intent to remain in the state).Financial independence will be implied for residence determination if you meet one of the following criteria. You:Have natural or adoptive parent(s), upon whom you are financially dependent, who meet the requirements for California residence for purposes of tuition and fees, orAre at least 24 years of age by Dec. 31 of the calendar year of the term for which classification is requested, orAre a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces, orAre a ward of the court or both parents are deceased, orHave a legal dependent other than a spouse or registered domestic partner, orAre a married student, or a registered domestic partner, or a graduate student or professional student, AND you were not claimed as an income tax deduction by any individual for the one tax year immediately preceding the term for which resident classification is requested, orAre a graduate or professional school student who was not claimed as an income tax deduction by either parent or any other individual for the tax year immediately preceding the term for which classification as a resident is requested, orAre a graduate or professional student who is employed at UC 49% or more time (or awarded the equivalent in university-administered funds, e.g., grants, stipends, fellowships) in the term for which resident classification is requested, orYou reached the age of majority (18 years) in California while your parents were residents (for tuition purposes) of this state AND California resident parents leave the state to establish a residence elsewhere, AND you continue to reside in the state of California after the parents' departure.
