So, finding out information about this is driving me nuts! Maybe someone can help me out. I'm moving from MO to CA for my MFA. The program pays for OOS tuition for the first year, but you have to establish residency for the remaining two years. My confusion comes with my car. I'm the primary driver, but it's technically my dad's car. His name is the only one on the title, but I'm on the insurance policy. He's basically allowing me to borrow it indefinitely until I get another car. I know I need to get a CA driver's license to establish residency. Does the car also need to be registered to CA since that's where it'll be driven? Or can it still have MO tags since it's my dad's car? If it does need to be registered in CA, how does that work with insurance? Also, anyone have any advice on this whole residency thing? I understand you need to have an apartment or home in the state, get a new driver's license, and open a new bank account in the state. Am I missing anything else? I don't really own property or anything like that. Thanks to anyone who can help. I'm planning to talk to my insurance provider and the CA DMV when it gets closer to my actual move in day, but I figured I might ask here as well. Hopefully someone has been in a similar situation!

This helps a lot actually! Thanks so much for sharing your experience!

Hey! I have a question about LGBT life at Irvine? I'm from the Midwest, in a city with a pretty small/not great LGBT community. I know California in general is really laid back and accepting, but I'm curious how people find Irvine specifically? Also, if anyone has thoughts on the scene there and dating and such, that'd be awesome. I know I'm not going to have much time, being in grad school, but it would be nice to have the potential to find a partner.

Hey everyone, Just curious, is anyone here a prospective or current MFA Costume Design student? I’m attending URTAs in Chicago in a little over two weeks and am hoping to enter into a grad program this upcoming fall. Id love to hear others’ experiences. If you’ve been to any interviews, how were they? Anyone else going to URTAs? I wouldn’t mind having some folks to commiserate with, definitely nervous wondering how many interviews I’ll get.
