Establish Texas residency by operating a business in the state. Qualify for tuition savings or pay us nothing.
My name is Vinay Kanumuri. I'm a proud brother of a current UT Austin student and I've spent the last 6 years studying college admissions, scholarships, and student personal finance. After helping family and friends navigate the Texas residency process, I started EasyInState to help make college more affordable for students like my sister.
A process tailored to your family's needs

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board sets the rules and requirements around who qualifies as a Texas resident for the purposes of in-state tuition. Texas Administrative Code Title 19 Part 1 Chapter 21 Subchapter B lays out these rules and requirements.
If you did not graduate from a Texas high school, you must establish residency via domicile. This is an option available for US Citizens, Permanent Residents, and some non-citizens who meet certain requirements.
To establish domicile, in addition to living in the state for 12 consecutive months, you or your parent (if you will be claimed as a dependent) must in this time period do one of the following: (i) be gainfully employed in Texas (student jobs do not qualify), (ii) own residential real property in Texas, (iii) be legally married to someone who has established domicile in Texas, or (iv) own and operate a business in the state. EasyInState's services cater to this 4th path.
Any legitimate business that operates as a Texas legal entity qualifies. We have done extensive research to help students ensure their business will meet the subjective standards for business operation set by each school and the state of Texas. We help students turn their interests into such businesses—whether it be photography, design, tutoring, or a simple service for your family and friends.
Navigating the in-state tuition process can often be confusing and guidance from schools is limited. Doing the work to check every box and avoid every pitfall is not easy. That said, it is possible to diligently do the research and work through the steps of the residency reclassification process yourself over the next 12 months. Talk to us about how EasyInState can help ensure you get it right hassle-free.
We charge a fee as a percentage of your tuition savings so our success is tied to yours. Pay us only after successful residency reclassification by your school.
The entire EasyInState process to establish domicile takes about 12 months in order to meet the Texas Administrative Code requirements for physical residence in the state. Sign up now to start saving in 12 months.
