How to claim state residency in Washington for college

How to claim state residency in Washington for college?
I'm planning to go to college in Washington, and, as costs go, being a resident of the state helps lower it. I've been looking around, and having little lucky finding information on this. I have lived in Washing for about six years of my life, but have lived there four the past four. My mother still resides in the state, and I was curious is I could possible use that to claim state residency. Thank you ahead for any and all answers!!

Answer 1 :
Because your mother lives there, yes you can be classified as a resident, providing that she's lived there for at least the last year. Here's an excerpt Requirements for Resident Classification: Dependent students receive resident status if one or both of their parents or legal guardians maintain domicile in the state for one year prior to the term of enrollment. This regulation applies regardless of the age of the student, for domicile is determined by financial dependency, rather than by the age of majority. website with all states requirements http://professionals.collegeboard.com/testing/international/state
