Abstract

Undocumented students can attend college and there are resources to help them with college access.  However, because of their lack of citizenship status undocumented students can confront many obstacles while trying to access college but college is still possible.  This session wants to help dispel myths to college access for undocumented students and give resources and support to school counselors trying to help undocumented students access college. 

Description

There seems to be some incorrect information amongst individuals in education right now about undocumented students and college access.  This session hopes to confront and define some of the myths and issues in the field of school counseling.  The session presenter will lecture using a PowerPoint with information on DACA, Lawful Presence, and Scholarship/Financial Aid tools and Information for undocumented students.  Helpful tips will also be included on how school counselors can help undocumented students access college.  The PowerPoint will be handed out as a resource that includes websites, tips, and tools that session attendees can use to help undocumented students access college.
