pswa83 302 Posted August 27, 2013 if you are in CA, then there is the Dream Act for undocumented students. in order to qualify you will have needed to have attended a CA high school for 3 years and have had graduated from a CA high school. you will also need to go to the admissions office of the school you want to attend (has to be a CA juco or cc or univesity) and have the admissions office verify your AB540 status before you can enroll and pay in-state tuition. you can also apply for the BOG wavier which should take care of your tuition. you can also rent textbooks from Chegg.com or other sites and that will help with the cost of books as well.

jenniv158 5 Posted August 27, 2013 The school I am trying to attend is basically a nine month program for medical assisting. Would this still help me out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
