I'm going to UNLV for Hotel Management and plan to live in Las Vegas during and after college moving from California but I heard after a year living in Las Vegas you can apply as a Nevada resident. Is this true? How can you apply? Are their alot of steps? I know after I get approved I can apply for in state tuition. Any info would be great.

Answer 1 :
You don't apply to be a resident. You are a resident from the time you move there, but most universities only give in-state prices to people who have lived there for a year or more. You just have to show you've been living there for a year (bills mailed to your address there a year ago, driver's license, etc).

As with so many of the questions that are asked here a better and more immediate answer could be found by typing your basic question in the "Web Search" box at the top of this page. In your case, Establishing Nevada Residency will get you directly to a page with all the details.
Answer 3 :
Dude, just rent an apartment and get a phone in your name. Boom you're a resident.
Answer 4 :
There is no application to become a resident. Rent an apartment and get bills sent to your address. Go to the DMV and change your drivers license to your Las Vegas address. Ta Daaaaaa ... you are then a resident. Once you have your ID you can register to vote here. You can do that as soon as you get your first bill or lease to show that you have moved here. The time factor has to do with registering your car here. You have to register it here within six months of moving here. After that there is a fine.

Nevada Residency Requirements You must be a Nevada resident and provide a Nevada street address to obtain a driver license. Active duty military members, their dependents and others living temporarily in Nevada are not required to transfer their license and registration. If you obtain non-military employment, however, you become a Nevada resident and must obtain a Nevada license and registration. Licenses are not issued to visitors, out-of-state students or foreign exchange students. Other foreign nationals may or may not be eligible for a license depending on their specific immigration status. E-Mail or call for details and see Beginning Drivers 18 & Older.
