WGATAP 17 Posted January 2, 2014 Hello guys, I have a quick question for those who have been to college or are currently attending. I was accepted to my local college and qualify for instate tuition since i went to the local high school. The admissions lady asked me to fax my daca approval letter and I would like to know if its necessary to send it since I will be paying out of pocket. I don't see why she needs it when I have my social as well as being a resident to the town . thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lunera 0 Posted January 3, 2014 I'm currently in college but I didn't have to do that. I'm not sure exactly what the rules are where you're at. I'm sure if you asked them why they needed it they would tell you. To me, it doesn't sound too unreasonable. Perhaps it has to do with whether or not you're eligible for state funds? That's the only reason that I can come up with for why they would need it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roadrunner11 167 Posted January 4, 2014 They request your social security number not only to prove your immigration status. All students are required because they have to send receipts to the IRS so they know where the money comes from. At the end of the year you will get a tax document that you can file w your income tax stuff. My parents used the forms to prove the helped me pay for it and it helped them get a better refund.

b923 3 Posted January 5, 2014 hey guys i live in Tennessee and a lot of the colleges here are telling me that i wont qualify for instate tuition. Im a little lost at what i should do. I cant afford to pay out of state because that would be crazy high even at a community college. Anyone have any suggestions on schools to look in to that has a online program that is really inexpensive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
