Someone told me that once "anchor babies" graduate from high school, they can't go to college....

Question

due to their parents illegal citizenship. Is this true?

Answer 1

No, actually it's the other way around.

If you are born here legally, from 2 (two) U.S. Citizen parents, you are not allowed to be enrolled in college.

Mainly because they are not of the, "minority."

Answer 2

If by an "anchor baby" you mean a person born on US soil to foreign-citizen parents and therefore a US citizen, the answer to your question is no. There are no degrees of citizenship. A US citizen is a US citizen, whatever his or her relatives are up to. And no child is punished for his parents' actions.

Answer 3

The whole 'anchor baby' thing needs to be addressed directly, and clarified. If you just show up in the United States, and have a kid, I believe that when the kid's old enough to travel, (no, not when he's 30, rather medically certified as safe 2 travel), the whole family should go home. Letting a couple stay long enough to have their baby is one thing, letting them emigrate to the United States illegally as a reward for having their baby in our country is Not The Correct Answer.

If other countries sank more money into developing their own schools, hospitals, and other needed infrastructure, the United States wouldn't be such a magnet for all of this...

Answer 4

I saw something like that on 30 Days. But they are getting around it. Including the children born in Mexico who were raised here. They can pretty much do whatever they want because they outbreed all other American races 2 to 1.
And if any are denied entrance to college it is probably because they only have a middle school education, since now, in order to graduate high school in California, that 's all they need. They wouldn't pass the college entrance exam.

Answer 5

As of January 1, 2002, California’s AB 540 allows immigrant students in pursuit of higher education who meet specific requirements to be exempt from paying out-of state tuition fees.

I am an immigrant student that attended high school in Oregon for two years and completed my junior and senior year in California. Do I qualify to pay in-state tuition under this new law?

No, in order to be exempt from paying out of state tuition a student must meet ALL of the requirements
listed under the new law. In order to qualify a student must:
· graduate from a California high school;
· attend high school in California for 3 or more years;
· register or be currently enrolled at an accredited institution of higher education in California not
earlier than the fall semester or quarter of the 2001-2002 academic year;
· file an affidavit with the state community college or university stating that he/she will file an application with INS to obtain legal permanent residency as soon as he/she is eligible.

Answer 6

Completely untrue. In fact in California illegals themselves, much less US born children, get in state tuition rates we subsidize. The Senate Bill would clear the way for ALL states to do that.

Answer 7

Gocart 121 Perfect. Absolutely.

Answer 9

not true. Actually, in Oklahoma, they can go to Universities and pay In-State tuition. If they were here legally and awaiting citizenship then they would have to pay Out-of-State tuition. Fair?

Answer 10

They can go to college, but without any type of scholarship or government financial aid. Personally, anchor babies need to be deported along with the mother.
