California Dream Act

The California Dream Act allows undocumented students who meet certain criteria to access state financial aid for college. Introduced in 2011, it helps these students pay for their education by enabling them to apply for scholarships, grants, and other financial assistance. The act aims to support the educational aspirations of young immigrants who have grown up in California, emphasizing the importance of higher education for all residents regardless of immigration status, as long as they meet specific eligibility requirements, such as attending a California high school for three years and graduating.
