The Chronicle: Maryland Approves In-State Tuition Break for Undocumented Students
Maryland will become the 11th state to extend in-state college-tuition breaks to illegal immigrants under a measure state legislators approved late Monday, the Baltimore Sun reported. The bill will enable undocumented students who have attended Maryland high schools for at least three years, and whose families pay state taxes, to pay cheaper in-state tuition rates at community colleges. After completing 60 credit hours, students could transfer to a four-year state college, also at the in-state rate. Gov. Martin O’Malley is expected to sign the measure into law on Tuesday.
