Summary: | Answers For Undocumented Students, Colleges And Universities Editor's Note: Does the Supreme Court's decision to not allow the Trump administration to end DACA mean undocumented students no longer have to fear deportation? President Barack Obama signed the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals executive memorandum on June 15, 2012 to provide 1.2 million undocumented young people with two-year work permits and temporary relief from deportation. Since this program went into effect, approximately 800,000 undocumented immigrants have obtained DACA status, including about 643,000 with it today. Some of the ways schools can do that is by paying DACA application and renewal fees, providing free on-campus legal aid and offering access to mental health counselors. |
