[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve lived in the uk for ten years and DD is just finishing up A level exams. I would have loved for her to study at a university here, but it was just going to be too much money. It was going to be about £45k/year. That’s in pounds so figure $60k/year? Good luck getting a good rate. And that’s not even with room/board.

She got a full tuition FA scholarship to a T20 in the states and will go there. We have a HHI just under 200k. (But she’s also got a merit scholarship for even more at a school in the top 40 and one in the top 70.) [/quote]

If you live in the UK for five + years, shouldn't your DC be eligible for resident tuition? Fees at Oxbridge are based on residence, not on citizenship.[/quote]

In a word, no. There are a few stipulations for non-British residents, which we are, like which particular visa you hold and how many years you’ve lived here. For us I believe it has something to do with our settled status. We do not have indefinite leave to return or something like that. The jargon is hard to remember. [/quote]
