Higher Ed Pathways to Immigration: Why it Matters Event Recording and Resources
Join us on Wednesday, June 7th at 12pm ET/9am PT, for a practical, in-depth look at the crucial role that colleges and universities can play in partnership with students, advocates, and community organizations to effectively implement tuition equity policies in Arizona and elsewhere. We will discuss how to ensure that guidance is clear, consistent and accessible and that undocumented students know about their eligibility for in-state tuition and/or financial aid. Starting with Arizona, higher education leaders, leading advocates, and impacted students will discuss the importance and challenges in implementing Proposition 308 and offer guidance and tips. Resources will be shared.
