Nonwhite invaders who have entered America illegally are being funded by the Obama regime to the tune of millions of dollars to attend colleges free of charge—while American citizens are put to the back of the queue and forced to pay for their studies.
In one state alone—California—in excess of $12 million has been set aside to pay for invaders illegally resident in America to attend university.
According to the Lifezette news service—as syndicated on Fox News—the pro-invader financial aid also includes a $900,000 per year funding to the University of California’s (UC) “Undocumented Legal Services Center,” which advises students illegally resident in the country on how to become educated while breaking the law—at the taxpayers’ expense.
The program is not hidden from sight, the report states.
Just this May, former Secretary of Homeland Security and current University of California president Janet Napolitano announced a three-year commitment to support illegal UC students university-wide.
“We are committed to continuing a path forward for undocumented students at the University of California,” Napolitano said in a website message.
“This funding will further strengthen the university’s undocumented student initiative, and help ensure that these students receive the support and resources they need to succeed.”
UC boasts that it has earmarked $8.4 million through the 2018–19 academic year for “undocumented student support” across 10 campuses, which will be divided among three initiatives—the federal DREAM loan program will receive $5 million a year for at least three years, making student loans available to illegals who are not eligible for federal aid.
Additionally, $2.5 million will go to funding textbooks for illegals, funding payroll for student services coordinators, and offering graduate and undergraduate fellowships for illegals.
It is not just in California where this subsidizing of illegal immigrants—at the expense of Americans—is promoted.
In Chicago, Loyola University has a “Magis Scholarship Fund” to benefit illegals—subsidized out of the fees paid for by legal students.
An additional $2.50 “student fee” is added to each Loyola University student’s semester tuition bill—raising roughly $50,000 each year for the fund.
The scholarship is a joint partnership between the Latin American Student Organization (LASO) and the Student Government of Loyola Chicago.
The plan has been approved by the University’s Board of Trustees, Lifezette continued.
The scholarship’s mission is to not only help “undocumented” undergrads with school costs, according to the school’s website, but also to “jumpstart conversations in and outside the classrooms.”
“There are so many undocumented students who are working hard at Loyola but unfortunately can’t receive federal financial aid,” said Catalina Cipri, co-president of LASO.
“So it often compromises their ability to work as hard in school because they have to work to pay for their tuition.”
Even websites meant to disseminate general information about colleges have jumped on the “college for illegals” bandwagon, the Lifezette report continued.
Says bestcolleges.com, “Undocumented students should not hesitate to express their desire to go to college. Thanks to the Family Education Rights and Privacy act, school officials can’t disclose personal information (including immigration status) about students.”
Marguerite Telford, director of communications for the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) in Washington D.C., told Lifezette that “Schools are placing U.S. students at a disadvantage by designating a portion of seats to foreign students—this is done largely to garner more money for the schools.”
“But when you give seats to illegal aliens, it reduces the number of seats available to U.S. citizens.”
“A couple of states allow illegals to pay in-state tuition, which is kind of strange—you can’t be a U.S. citizen residing in Virginia and get in-state tuition in other states, yet someone who shouldn’t even be in the country can,” said Telford. “American students and their families lose spots in our education system.”
In addition, the Lifezette report said there are scholarships from organizations, corporations, and universities “dying to throw bushels of money your way if you are here when you shouldn’t be.”
MALDEF, a “civil rights organization for Latinos,” lists at least 50 different scholarship opportunities for illegal aliens—including scholarships funded by Microsoft. The tech giant will pay partial or even full tuition for a full year for an invader, the report said.
The Kaiser Permanente Health Care Career Scholarship Program awards $2,000–$10,000 scholarships to illegal aliens, and PFLAG National Scholarship Program will fund illegals who self-identify as a sexual deviant (“LGBT”) with $1,000 to $5000 a year if they have a plan to work within the “LGBTQ community” after graduation.
All of this is supported by the Obama White House, Lifezette continued. The administration’s “Partnerships for Refugees” website lists many ways the private sector can do more, including these goals on the education front:
“Establishing scholarship funds to support access to higher education for refugees, and providing free flights, textbooks, and housing assistance to refugees who are traveling to the United States to attend college.”
“All of which puts our own legal American students last—even as good and hardworking parents struggle every day to give their children a great education against a rising tide of difficulty,” the Lifezette report concludes.
