which states give in state tuition to illegal immigrants?
States Grapple With In-State Tuition for Illegal Immigrants. WASHINGTON â For most teenagers, going to college is part of the American dream. But the cost of fulfilling that dream has become a source of controversy, as illegal immigrants sometimes pay less than U.S. citizens to attend the same college.
In California, the state law that allows some illegal immigrants to pay in-state tuition rates was upheld by the state's Supreme Court, according to a report in the LA Times. The court determined that California's state law was not in violation of the federal law prohibiting such a benefit.
