Im living washington state and just recieved EAD and SSN! Yea!! Now im trying to apply college since I can work legally. However, community college told me that I am non resident and need to pay non resident rated tuition like internationals which is $1300.00 per 5 credits..... I lived here since 2005, and i never have been out of the U.S. I graduated high school from here, too. I thought I could attend college in instate resident rate. Does anybody have same problem as high tuition? Or can give me advice?
