How do Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) apply for need-based aid at Emory?
Emory requires only the completion of the CSS Profile, along with the IDOC packet (parent and student tax returns), in order to make a need-based financial aid determination for Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) (http://www.studentaid.emory.edu/apply/ucol/prospective/index.html). Students should follow the submission deadlines that correspond with their admission plan.
Should Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) notify the Office of Financial Aid?

How will admitted Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) know what their financial aid package is?
Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) will be able to review their need-based aid package online, through the OPUS Student Center.
I am an international student who graduated from a U.S. high school and enrolled at Emory as a first year student. My visa has since expired. Am I eligible for financial aid as an Undocumented Student under this policy?
No. When a student is admitted as an undergraduate international student during the admission process, the designation as an international student will remain throughout his or her Emory undergraduate career.
How do Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) apply for admission to Emory College and Oxford College?
Please visit the Office of Undergraduate Admission website for details:http://apply.emory.edu/apply/undocumented.php.
Can Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) apply for merit-based scholarships?
Yes. Undocumented Students (with or without DACA) and international students are eligible to apply for the same merit-based scholarships available to any students. Emory University offers partial to full merit-based scholarships and membership in the Scholars Programs to incoming first-year students through the Emory University Scholars Program (http://apply.emory.edu/apply/scholars.php).
Cut Federal aid.
I assume free healthcare too
Have ICE start sweeping the colleges. You would get the lefts entire attention. I’d laugh my ass off.
Start with the senior class. 😝👏
Well, it is in Atlanta, the Chicago of the South.
Like everyone here said, time to starve the beast. I wonder what their Alumni Association thinks.
Same bunch that got offended at TRUMP chalked on the sidewalk.
Nothing is “free”. Whitey is paying for it.
Emory is considered the “Ivy League of the South”. During the campaign pro-Trump messages in chalk appeared on campus. Students demanded – and the Emory president agreed – to use campus surveillance system to identify the chalkers.
A professor wanted the Trump supporters prosecuted for “unauthorized chalking”.
Of course, Bernie and Hillary messages of support were allowed in all forms all over campus.
is it possible to renounce your citizenship and remain here on the dole ?
I cannot believe the citizens are so willing to give so much away to illegal immigrant invaders who broke the law and flaunt it in their faces.
just when is the rest of the world coming for their share of the handouts ?
Rule #1 for leftists is to destroy this countries continuity. They have done a remarkable job so far. People are reaching a breaking point, violence is creeping closer. They have no intention of easing off while we refuse to budge from our principles. I say let the fun begin.
Soooo … why can’t every student make the claim?
If undocumented – then refuse to show any documents.
If a student can choose its “gender” then why can’t it simply choose to be an illegally-invading rat-person?
I don’t see any upside for Emory – except a “Hey! Look at me!” moment.
izlamo delenda est …
#undocumentedprivilege
I identify as undocumented
Where’s my free stuff?
Tax payers money is not free money, conservative thinking.
Tax payers money is free money, libtard thinking.
What if I, a U.S. citizen, identify as undocumented?
“Emory requires only the completion of the CSS Profile, along with the IDOC packet (parent and student tax returns)…”
Doesn’t a someone need a SSN to complete a tax return?
Oh yeah, that was before obola skated into the Winner’s Circle with three of them.
(I realize that Mooch would be more appropriate for the Winner’s Circle, but no one would be willing to put the flowers on her, for fear of her bite.)
