TUCSON – Since July 3, the University of Arizona has been able to corroborate the legal status of 758 of the 877 students it previously reported as “not verified” under the strictures of Proposition 300.

Passed by voters in November 2006, Proposition 300 requires illegal immigrants to pay out-of-state tuition and bans them from receiving state tuition assistance.
