Gonzales, Roberto2019-01-252019-01-252010-12-01http://hdl.handle.net/10919/86901Over the last few years, increasing numbers of undocumented students have made their way through to two- and four-year colleges and universities. The increased matriculation rates of these students have been aided by several processes: 1) increases in unauthorized settlement in the late 1980s and 1990s, dramatically increasing the numbers of undocumented children coming of age in the United States (Gonzales 2007; Massey et al 2002; Passel and Cohn 2009); 2) in-state tuition laws assisting undocumented students in certain states to offset higher out-of-state tuition fees (Olivas 2007; Rincon 2008); and 3) the increase in community efforts by students and counselors, bringing awareness to students and families of their rights to go to college (Gonzales 2008; McGray 2007; Rincon 2008; Seif 2006). However, as the volume of undocumented youth matriculating into colleges and universities increases, on campus new questions arise as to their specific rights.application/pdfen-USCreative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalundocumented studentsaccess to higher educationin-state resident tuitionhigher education policyeducation policy process at state levelReporthttps://www.nacacnet.org/globalassets/documents/knowledge-center/undocumented-students/jca-winter-2010-sup-only.pdf
