Thanks this was the most helpful!

>Btw as far as living in the state for one year before qualifying for instate tuition is concerned, that rule applies to your parent(s) and not you since you’re their dependent. They very likely met that requirement...since they’re citizens.

So basically you can't benefit from it as the student/kid in that case I guess? only your parents would (which is not transferrable or w/e?)

​

so i basically conclude that a US citizen (regardless of dual citizen or not) who hasn't been living in the country would be paying out-of-state tuition for their entire college degree if they decide to go back for their education, in most cases.
