Applying

Students spend much of their senior year applying for colleges or universities, and many also have to apply for scholarships, which have different deadlines. These resources can help guide an undocumented student in their application process for college.

Undocumented Student Resources

The Tennessee Higher Education Commission with the Tennessee Student Assistance Corporation developed a website of post-secondary opportunities for students across the state. Users can search for schools by type, location, cost, size, and housing.

College Results (CR) is an interactive, user-friendly web tool designed by EdTrust, to provide policymakers, counselors, parents, students, and others with information for nearly every four-year university in the country. Undocumented students in Tennessee can use this resource to learn more about schools that interest them, both in and out of state.

Your citizen and immigration status may impact your eligibility to receive state or federal financial aid. This resource should not be taken in place of any legal advice from a board-certified legal professional.
