Please note: check these resources frequently as the information contained within each is updated/changed on a regular basis.
We believe that all students regardless of legal status should have the same opportunity to pursue the “American Dream” and become the first in their families to be college graduates. Our vision is to bring hope to all those students who think there is no path for them after high school to continue their higher education. We want to be able to bridge the gap of lack of financial aid when transitioning to college for all undocumented students.
At TheDream.US, we’re working to help over 4,000 highly motivated DREAMers graduate from college with career-ready degrees.
Department of Education - Scholarships for Undocumented Students
NOTE: Scholarships are listed on p. 42 of this document.
This information is provided for the reader’s convenience and is included here to
offer examples of the many scholarships that educators, parents, advocates, administrators,
and other interested parties may find helpful and use at their discretion. The U.S.
Department of Education does not control or guarantee the accuracy, relevance, timeliness,
or completeness of this outside information. In addition, the organizations sponsoring
these scholarships are responsible for deciding whether or not to award a scholarship
to any individual.
Our mission at My Undocumented Life blog is to provide up-to-date information and resources to undocumented immigrants. We post scholarship opportunities that are open to undocumented students, strategies for navigating the educational system, information on how to apply for DACA/Advanced Parole, news on DAPA, and much more. Most importantly, we want to provide a sense of community to our diverse group of readers.
Immigrants Rising, formerly known as Educators for Fair Consideration (E4FC), transforms lives and fuels broader changes. With resources and support, undocumented young people are able to get an education, pursue careers, and build a brighter future for themselves and our country.
Immi helps immigrants in the U.S. understand their legal options. Our online screening tool, legal information, and referrals to nonprofit legal services organizations are always free to use. Immi was created by the Immigration Advocates Network and Pro Bono Net, two nonprofit organizations dedicated to increasing access to justice for low-income immigrants.
Immigrant Legal Resource Center (Red Cards)
All people in the United States, regardless of immigration status, have certain rights and protections under the U.S. Constitution. The ILRC’s Red Cards help people assert their rights and defend themselves in many situations, such as when ICE agents go to a home.
