How does one who is here illegally apply for full citizenship? How many of those here illegally, who have received in state tuition, have applied for and/or received citizenship?
One cannot. The statement "The law demands the beneficiary apply for full citizenship to the U.S." is false. The law demands the applicant SAY (in writing) that he or she WILL apply, if/when it becomes possible to do so.
good catch. The law states that:
“In addition, if the student was not a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident, he/she had to file an affidavit with his/her institution, indicating an intent to apply for Permanent Resident status as soon as able to do so.”
So the state does the best they can do, by making the student promise to make it legal. Obviously a state cannot directly affect federal law and make the student a citizen.

I just did a quick scan of this Document: a Guide to Naturalization.
NOWHERE does it say that illegals are banned from applying.
the only mention of illegsl is that if they have been ORDERED deported THEN they are inelegible.
Seems there needs to be a Law that ILLEGALS, PERIOD, may NOT apply for Citizenship.
That would end all of this BS.
