[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did anyone ever answer the dual residency issue? Our kids are us, uk and eu. Sending them across the pond for college is totally my plan, if things don't change in this country. It's not just the cost of college--our entire health care system is so predatory that I don't see the point in growing old here... for them or for us. (I am the American citizen saying this though. My husband disagrees. Although lately... he's starting to see what I mean.)[/quote]

This is us, too.  Lately, I've been thinking of retiring in the UK, mainly for healthcare costs. But, the NHS is not without issues.  My inlaws there have plenty to say about the NHS.

As for residency for "home" tuition rates, you have to have lived there for 3 yrs to be a resident.  By that time, the kid will have already graduated since most degrees are finished in 3 yrs.  You could take a gap year and then apply. Then you'd have the last year as resident.

If your kid is a dual citizen, the kid could work in the UK for a year during the gap year.  Help pay for college costs.[/quote]
