And if you think so, should they pay for their own education, or have them continue to get money from the US government through financial aid (which everyone pays for through tax)?

Never.
I AM in college in my own country. I have to pay for my own education. I get zero money from my Government.
I expect Illegals to go home and go to college there. Let their government pay their bills. My government won't pay mine and shouldn't pay theirs!
End of story!

If they want to go to school here let them however the money should come from their own pockets legal or not. The only time they should get money from our government is when they have become an official American citizen. I think it is wrong of any government to give students money who are not even an citizen of their country. There are plenty of Americans who need the Government Grants to attend College. Many are denied grants because the non-citizens are given them first. I know because that is why i could not have one. They told me I would never qualify because I was a citizen, i was not a minority, and i was not a single parent.

No the government should not pay for their education or medical expenses for that matter. If the illegal immigrants makes billions in the US every year as the research has shown that they send back home, then let them open associations and use that money to pay for their own. While the government pays for their needs although they are illegals our own needs as citizens of this nations gets put on the back burner. IE: California needs freeway redone, social security needs overhaul, school districts need funding etc.

What's the point of having any laws when certain laws help a certain segment of people advance while the remaining people are forced to deal with the harsh reality nothing is free so why should illegals be affronted free college education? What comes next, free new car to reach college, rent free apt.

What would be the point of going to college if you're illegal? Pay for an education here, save money and go back home to practice your degree? but why should we pay for that? If they are here illegaly, the concept of them even stepping into a school is unacceptable.

I think Its completely wrong all of this illegal immigrant stuff needs to come to a stop. It is not right for them to come in here illegally and be able to get every thing for free its like were rewarding them for doing something illegal. So no I don't think they should get free education they should make there selves legal and pay like the rest of us.

I think illegals should be denied all healthcare, social welfare, benefits and education. Thats the only way you will get rid of them.
They keep coming precisely because you DO give them free handouts, education and healthcare.
Oh and you should also STOP putting up spanish signs. MAKE them learn english if they want to be here, they must assimilate by learning the native language.

No, the illegal criminal aliens should NOT have the right to attend college even if they are able to pay for it. There are many of our own citizens that are not able to get slots in schools.
For the illegals to attend college, it is taking a space from a legal citizen.

I don't think illegal immigrants should be here. They are illegal. I have nothing against immigrants. My wife immigrated to here from Portugal when she was eight. Though I was born here, most of my ancestors were immigrants (part Cherokee). But illegal immigrant should not have any benefits of taxpayers money until they make themselves legal. People caught in this country illegally shouldn't really even be allowed to stay.

Hmm.. "Illegal immigrants" The term alone answers the question. They are illegally in this country. Therefore are not allowed to participate in any social, corporate or charitable establishment. my answer is: Not until they have gained legal right to live and work in the country and are paying taxes to the government.

At a state run school, using taxpayer money - NOT A CHANCE!!!! We already paid for their education. Why should we continue to pay for it?
