I have seen recently where two undocumented immigrants were Valedictorians of their HS. The one said she has been waiting 6-7 years for citizenship. Maybe I am totally ignorant on how the whole thing works, but I am trying to understand how you make it through school. Don't you need a SS number and what not? The one is going to Yale and the other one said that her tuition is paid for. I dont have anything against these girls I just dont understand how you can register for / receive aid for college with out a SS number.
