ASU, MCCCD ponder passage of Prop 308

Law would allow for in-state tuition regardless of immigration status

Arizona State University and the Maricopa County Community College District are grappling with what the potential passage of a proposition would mean for them come November. 

Proposition 308, on the ballot on Nov. 8, would allow Arizona students, regardless of their immigration status, to be eligible for financial aid at state universities and community colleges, and in-state tuition if they graduated from and attended a public or private high school, or a home school equivalent, for two years in Arizona. 

The law is being heralded as a boon for “Dreamers”, or those here under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, by those in favor.
