Should undocumented immigrants be offered in-state tuition rates at public colleges within their residing state?

College education shouldn't cost money to begin with.

Yes, they should be eligible for in-state tuition, scholarships, and financial assistance, as long as they have confirmed they are applying for legal citizenship and are taking the steps to become a legal U.S. citizen; but a background check must be allowed in order to submit an immigrant to a college.

No, not until they're planning to become legal citizens. The legalization system should be improved though, so that more immigrants can get education in the U.S.

Only if they are in the process of gaining citizenship.

No, if they are illegal they should try and gain their citizenship.

If the parents have a job and pay taxes, their children should be eligible for in-state tuition, financial assistance, and scholarships.

Reflect on the notion of 'fairness': is providing in-state tuition to undocumented immigrants equitable to taxpayers who fund public colleges?

Consider the dreams you have for your future; how might those change if your access to affordable education was limited?

Imagine that you've lived in a state your whole life, but were not a legal resident; how might you feel about being charged out-of-state tuition?

In your opinion, how do education benefits for undocumented immigrants contribute to the community and society at large?

How would the opportunity to pay in-state tuition impact the motivation and academic potential of undocumented students in your community?

If a friend without legal citizenship status was striving for higher education, what arguments would you make for or against their right to in-state tuition?

What are the implications of educating undocumented immigrants at public colleges for the workforce and economy in your state?

Is there a difference in merit between a documented student and an undocumented one when considering who deserves in-state tuition rates?

How might the inclusion of undocumented students at public colleges challenge or enrich the educational experience for all students?

How do you think offering in-state tuition to undocumented immigrants might influence the cultural diversity and global perspective within a college campus?

No, illegal immigrants should be deported at their own expense or receive the death penalty.

I neither agree nor disagree

No, because they should be documented before being allowed to be offered a tuition.

Yes, they should be eligible for tuition, scholarships, and financial assistance as long as they have confirmed they are applying for legal citizenship and taking steps to become citizens. However, background checks must be allowed in order to submit an immigrant to a college.

No, unless they became permanent residents or plan on becoming U.S. citizens since they are not legal residents of any state. The legalization system should be improved though, so that more immigrants can get education in the U.S.

If their residence is in state, then sure

Only if they are actively becoming a citizen.

No, because they came here and if they aren't citizens they should pay for it on their own.

No, no one should receive in-state tuition.

No, and we should execute all illegal immigrants who do not finance their own deportation

No, unless they become legal citizens. The legalization system should be improved though, so that more immigrants can get education in the U.S. They should pay the same rate as out-of-state students.

If they meet the residency requirement

No, they are not legal residents of any state, so there is no reason for them to receive government benefits. The legalization system should be improved though, so that more immigrants can get education in the U.S.

States should determine this for themselves

If they come here under age they should be legal citizens.

No. Once they are discovered, they should be sent home, unless they were born here and are under the age of 10. But we should consider offering a free online course or a book on how to not be poor nor in danger where they are from/ how to fulfill their needs.

No. Once they are discovered, they should be sent home. This is enforcing the law.

No, they should not be able to go to college, public or private, as an illegal/undocumented immigrant

Yes, everyone in America should be treated equal.

dreamers should be offered-in-state tuition rates

this question is flawed because an undocumented illegal will not be able to get into school anyways.

Yes, but Abolish government subsidized loans

Public college should be free for all

NOTHING IS FREE!!! If they aren't paying taxes, absolutely not. If they can't find a job to pay for school they can provide services to the school.

Yes, a healthy and educated population improves society for everyone, so undocumented immigrants should be offered in-state tuition rates at public colleges within their residing state, just as long as they pay taxes, and as a Bonus, they will be eligible for financial assistance and scholarships

Yes, but then they should be properly documented

Yes, but only if they have intent to remain in the United States

Yes, but make college free for everyone

They should be taken care of, given health care, if they cannot pay taxes then they should be given a certain amount of money to start a life and once they are settled enough they should pay everything that citizens pay as well, because after all by now they should have been citizens.

If you came here with a legal guardian (who was over 18) illegally before you turned 18 you would get in state tuition. If you came afterward you would have to do community service or jail time or military service or jury duty or be deported if they or someone else doesn't pay it back(unless they have kids that were born here or came here before they turned 18; then the community service would be the only options. If they refuse to do this then the parents will be put on house arrest and work for the government with a living wage until they can pay it off.) If they don't have kids…  Read more and they refuse to do anything then they'll be deported. All the adults also need to pay for and be enrolled and complete a class on becoming a citizen. If they fail or don't finish they have to do more community service etc and if they refuse and don't have kids they have to be deported.

No, and all illegal immigrants should either be deported or taken through immigration proceedings.

No, get legal

No, but there should be an easier path to legal citizenship.

No, there should not be public colleges

All 4-year colleges and universities should be free for anyone.

They should be able to receive free 4-year college if they pay taxes.

Yes, give them a path to citizenship, let them pay taxes, and reap all the benefits of a citizen while paying their part and trying to become one.

This should be left to the individual state to determine

Yes, as long as they pay taxes in the state and can confirm they are applying for legal citizenship

Yes, if they have lived in the country for 5+ years

No, if they are undocumented then they should only be provided the bare minimum of healthcare without identification, subsidized or free schooling should only be for those who pay taxes yearly. But if they have been in the US for more than 8 years, they should already be given citizenship.

Yes, as long as they pay taxes and have confirmation of applying for legal citizenship

Yes, if they can confirm they pay taxes, have resided in their state for one year and have applied to become a legal citizen

Yes, if they can show proof they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen, and have either graduated from an in-state high school or paid taxes in their residing state.

Yes, if they can show proof they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen and have graduated from an in-state high school, or have paid taxes in their residing state.

Yes, if they confirmed that they are applying for legal citizenship

College should be free for all citizens/ people who are paying taxes

only when they've shown they deserve it such as a good school history, and if they haven't got one than let them do a couple of quizzes or so

Yes but only if they are going to become a United States Citizen and have been in the US for at least 5 years.

not a citizen so no but there should be reforms to make citizenship status easier to obtain

Yes, if they can show proof that they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen and have either graduated from an in-state high school or paid taxes in their residing state

Yes, if they can show proof they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen and have either graduated from an in-state high school or paid taxes in their residing state

Yes, if they can show proof that they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen and have either graduated from an in-state high school or paid taxes in their residing state.

Yes, as long as they have paid taxes for at least one year, have applied for legal citizenship and reside in the state they plan on studying in

Yes, as long as they have paid taxes, applied for legal citizenship and resided in the state they plan on studying in for at least one year

Yes, if they can show proof they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen and have either graduated from an in-state high school or paid taxes in their residing state.

Yes, if they can confirm their tax paying status, have resided in their state for one year, and can confirm application for processing to become a legal citizen

Yes, as long as they have paid taxes for one year, applied for legal citizenship, and reside in the state the school is located in

Yes, as long as they have paid taxes for one year and have proof of application for legal citizenship

Yes, as long as they pay taxes and can confirm their application for legal citizenship

Yes, if they can confirm they pay taxes, have resided in their state for one year, and have applied to become a legal citizen

Yes, if they can confirm their tax paying status, have resided in their state for one year, and can confirm application to become a legal citizen

Yes, if they can confirm they pay taxes, have graduated from an in-state high school and have applied to become a legal citizen

I would leave that decision to the various states. In my preferred world there will be almost no undocumented immigrants, there will just be lots of permanent green card holders and millions of tourists.

Yes, if they have graduated from an in-state high school and have applied to become a legal citizen

Yes, as long as they pay taxes in their residing state and have applied for legal citizenship

They should probably become legal citizens first

Yes, if they can show proof they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen and have graduated from an in-state high school or have paid taxes in their residing state.

I'm unsure?

Yes, if they can show proof they are in the process of becoming a legal citizen, and have either graduated from an in-state high school or paid taxes in their residing state

I really don't understand but there a human and they deserve an education

Yes, as long as they confirm they are paying taxes in the state and are applying for legal citizenship

Yes, as long as they pay taxes in their residing state and can confirm that they are in the application process for legal citizenship

Public colleges should be tuition-free regardless

They should be able to redeem themselves so they can be able to live in the U.S.A they should be able to get a license to be able to not be an illegal immigrant or something like that.

If they arrived in the U.S. before the age of 5, they should be allowed in-state tuition. Otherwise, they should only be allowed out-of-state tuition, and must be on the path to citizenship.

As long as they have confirmed that they are applying for legal citizenship

No, because they probably won't understand us, and there will more than likely not be any other people who can understand them either, which would make it difficult already to teach them, on top of that, they never entered the country in a legal way and don't have citizenship, so there is practically no way that going to an American school would even be practical, so either they have the option of being deported, or paying for their crime by serving in the military for a year so they can claim their citizenship.

Yes they should be able to do it with private loans
