Advising Guide For CUNY Undocumented Students

Important Facts

• You do not need Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to apply for college
   
• CUNY offers undocumented students in-state tuition rates if they have graduated from a New York State high school or have received a GED from New York State, and applied to attend a CUNY institution within five years of receiving the New York State GED or High school diploma. 
   
• If you move from another state and you have Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), you can still apply for in-state tuition after you have lived in the state for twelve or more consecutive months.
