Working with Undocumented Students: Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals

This session will examine the federal and state laws regarding financial aid eligibility for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) students. There is often much confusion on how we can best serve these students as laws vary by state. We will hear from a legal expert on how best to work with these students who have self-identified, as well as students who may not have applied for DACA status but may be eligible. Our legal expert will provide us with resources to work with this growing population. Best practices will be identified and discussed.
