Spazz & Quidditch need a new "doghouse"

[shadon]

Hey Spazzdog, you're in for a treat! I moved to SF from DC eight years ago and haven't looked back. And now that I've discovered cycling I"m *really* not looking back!

I flew on a one ticket via Southwest when I did my move, so no advice on travel time, but my goodness I'm jealous! I've always wanted to do a cross country trip.

[spazzdog]

Well, thx all! Believe it or not, I'm actually looking forward to this.

Trek420 - that's TWO dogs; Mae & Quid... unless there's a 3rd one you haven't mentioned. What'd you do; buy Mae a little Yorkie snack

AG - I woke up this morning and thought AAA Triptix and AG's TE map... now there's a resource to use to plan this route, (Sorry to the international gals... U-Haul doesn't float, so I won't be showing up for an overnight in your driveway), so watch out grrls... I may be coming to a town near you. Briefly.

p.s. whoops! 3 dog reference; 3rd dog = Spazzdog... silly me

Does anyone know what the residency requirement for CA is before one qualifies for in-state tuition at state univ.?

I want to get back to school as soon as possible, but don't want to incur the out-of-state tuition bomb (assuming UC will admit me as a transfer).

I can't help you with any info because I'm in MI, but wanted to wish you good luck. Also, I wanted to let you know how jealous I am, DH and I have been talking for the last few months of just packing up and moving to AZ or CA because we hate MI. We haven't been able to take the plunge though. Good luck and let us know how it goes!!

Hey Spazz -
I found this on the UC Berkeley web site:

Who is a California Resident?
If you are an adult who is not an alien present in the U.S. in a nonimmigrant status which precludes you from establishing domicile in the U.S. (e.g., a B, F, H2, H3, or J visa) and you want to be classified as a resident for tuition purposes, you must have established your continuous presence in California more than one year immediately preceding the residence determination date for the semester during which you propose to attend the University, and you must have given up any previous residence. You must also present objective evidence that you intend to make California your permanent home. Evidence of intent must be dated one year before the term for which you seek resident classification.

More info on this page: http://registrar.berkeley.edu/Residency/legalinfo.html

And wow - it's amazing the difference between resident & non-resident rates.

Thx Denise... I was all over that site yesterday and didn't stumble across it.

OK, so I'll have 1 year to work, work, work before returning to school... again.

Planning...

You shouldn't feel bad - that information was very, very buried! You would think they'd make it easy to find, but no!

Spazz,

If our dogs don't eat each other, heck even if they do, I'm about 5 long but very rideable blocks from this community college, might be some units you need:
