Ok, so if their parents are illegal but they are born here, they are US citizens, correct? So I don't see how you can deny them in-state tuition in that case if they live in Texas. But how would they fill out the financial aid forms, when they are dependent students and must report parental income from a tax return, social security numbers, etc? Looks like the parents would be guilty of fraud were they illegal.

If they are illegal themselves, how are they graduating from Texas High Schools? I had to provide so much information just to enroll my daughter in Kindergarten in NY— you'd think Texas would be tougher.

My daughter heard the University of North Texas has an excellent music program. Should she apply, claim she has no paperwork, and therefore be afforded in-state tuition, which she wouldn't get as a New Yorker?

You’re right. All this aiding and abetting does nothing but create epic fraud. Of course the frauds know this.

It’s easy. Most schools (at least in CA) don’t require much paperwork. Also, they look the other way with cases of identity theft.

In California (San Diego Area) buses go ACROSS THE BORDER to pick up kids in Mexico and bus them to be educated here in the US. They aren’t even illegals (they live in Mexico) and they are getting free US education.
