Tuition Rates
This referendum will allow
individuals, including illegal immigrants, to qualify for in-state tuition
rates at community colleges in Maryland, as long as the individual meets
several requirements. Among these are attendance and graduation from a Maryland
high school, filing of income taxes, and registering with the selective service
system (if required). Also they must have the intention of becoming a citizen.
This allows these individuals to qualify for in-state tuition rates at public
colleges and universities as long as they have completed 60 credit hours or
graduated from a Maryland community college. Students who are allowed to get
in-state tuition rates this way are not counted as in-state students for things
like counting undergraduate enrollment. Honorably discharged veterans will have
more time to qualify for these rates. It is up to the people whether or not
this law is approved.
