Admission of Undocumented Immigrants

An undocumented immigrant shall be admitted to Bladen Community College only if he or she attended and graduated from a United States public high school, private high school, or home school that operates in compliance with State or local law. Undocumented immigrants with a high school equivalency diploma are not eligible to be admitted to Bladen Community College. Students lawfully present in the United States shall have priority over any undocumented immigrant in any class or program of study when capacity limitations exist; therefore, must register on the last published registration period. All undocumented immigrants shall be charged out of state tuition whether or not they reside in North Carolina. An undocumented immigrant may not receive state or federal financial aid in the form of a grant or loan. Federal law prohibits undocumented immigrants from obtaining professional licenses.
