    Both Louisiana and Georgia have free college tuition for students.

    Let's say you, or one of your kids, wants to go to college but
    cannot afford to do so. Your state does not offer free college
    tuition, but other states do. Moving to another state would solve
    that problem, although one would still have to pay room and board -
    which is what dormitories and cafeterias are for.

    To get around the out of state tuition problem, all one would
    have to do is become a resident of the state. Doing chores in
    exchange for a place to stay should do it.

    Which brings up an interesting question -

    How long does it take to become a resident of a state?

    Many states put the threshold at one year. Plus, living in the state
    for the purposes of going to school does not count.

    I mostly grew up in Florida and graduated from high school there. At
    that time the state universities gave automatic admission to anyone who graduated from a Florida high school, plus had a tuition of $50 per
    year. Of course, that tuition is much higher now, almost $6,400 for in
    state and just over $28,000 for out of state. Although they had
    guarenteed admission, they did not guarentee that you would not flunk
    out before the end of the first semester -- and supposedly 2/3rds of
    them did just that. I have no idea what their policy is today.
