Support Equal Access to Education for Undocumented Students!

Every year thousands of Undocumented Students graduate from high school and are unable to attend college because they have to pay out of state tuition. We urge the state legislature to support Senate Bill 463:Access to Equal Education.

Why is this important?

I am starting this petition because I, among many others, was unable to continue my education beyond high school even though I've attended North Carolina schools since I was 6 years old. As Undocumented Students we have to pay three times as much as an in state student even though we have lived here for many years. At this moment there are 20 states that currently have in state tuition for Undocumented Students. I urge you to sign this petition to show your support. I sincerely hope that we are given the chance to fulfill our dreams of becoming teachers, doctors, scientists, physiologists and many other things that we can accomplish with a higher education.
