(This is from a decade ago, so take it for what it's worth)

Out of state tuition was killing me, so after my freshman year, I took a full year off to get residency.

The University of Texas needed proof of 12 months of continuous Texas residency. Proof consisted of my apartment lease and a letter from my employer (and pay stubs) showing 12 months of full time employment in Texas. I also could not be declared a dependent on my parents' taxes, and attend any other university or college in Texas during that time.
