A group of D.C. Council members has introduced legislation that would create a grant program for undocumented students in the District who wish to attend college. Councilmember Christina Henderson proposed “DC Advancing College Hopes for Immigrants’ Education and Vocational Enrichment Scholarship” which would provide grants to high school graduates who do not have U.S. citizenship. Undocumented students are ineligible for federal financial aid and have limited access to state aid programs. The proposed program would aim to allocate $17,000 per student. Undocumented students could use the financial aid to attend the city’s only public university, the University of the District of Columbia.
