Can non-legal immigrants get financial aid?
It is difficult. There are a few private scholarships for undocumented students that do not require the student to be a U.S. citizen or resident or have a social security number in order to apply.
Can non-citizen parents of a U.S. citizen get financial aid?
If the student is a U.S. citizen but his/her parents are not, the student is still eligible for federal aid. If the parents do not have a social security number they should use 000-00-0000 as their social security number on the FAFSA form.
I have questions about my financial aid award. Who should I contact?
Contact the Financial Aid Office at your school.
