I live in Georgia. I want to go to New York, stay with my grandparents, and attend a community college near them to get my GPA up. If I go to a community college for a year or two, could I then claim residency when I apply to a University? How long do I have to live there to be considered a resident in a college's eyes?

Answer 1 :
You have to be in an established residence for 6 months before you can claim residency in a state. So in other words, if you live with your grandparents for 6 months, then you legally live in New York. My best friend actually set up a PO box in NC, to establish residency. She was staying in a dorm when her parents moved from NC up to MD, and even just having a PO Box in her name in NC was enough to claim residency for her college.
