Audio Online Seminar • Wednesday, September 9, 2009 • 12:00 - 1:30 PM CDT • $254
The number of undocumented students who are graduating from U.S. high schools with hopes of attaining a college education is increasing. The fact of this development is raising a number of questions in higher education circles, such as:
• What is an “undocumented” student?
• What do I need to know about limits on admission or financial aid for undocumented students when I’m at a new student orientation or recruiting event?
• What am I legally allowed to ask potential students about their citizenship status when conducting college recruiting visits?
If you are interested in learning about the answers to these questions, as well as about other topics regarding these students including how to remove admissions and financial aid obstacles to help them achieve their educational goals, you will definitely want to attend our new audio online seminar on September 9. Presented by Saundra Schuster, Admitting Undocumented Students: 15 Frequently Asked Questions will provide you with expert advice and insights on how to effectively support these students in their quest for a college education.
Schuster is a partner with the National Center for Higher Education Risk Management. Previously, she served as General Counsel for Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio, and before that was Senior Assistant Attorney General for the State of Ohio in the Higher Education Section and Associate General Counsel for the University of Toledo. Before practicing law, she served as the Associate Dean of Students at The Ohio State University and has more than 25 years of experience in college administration and teaching. She frequently presents nationally on legal issues in higher education and holds master’s degrees in counseling and higher education administration from Miami University. She has completed coursework for her Ph.D. at The Ohio State University and has a juris doctorate degree from the Moritz College of Law at The Ohio State University.
By participating in this insightful, content-rich seminar, you will:
• Better understand the effect of current and proposed federal laws on providing education and financial support for undocumented students.
• Have an increased understanding of policies in your state for state-based financial aid.
• Understand more fully the barriers that undocumented students face in seeking a college education.
• Be more knowledgeable on how to provide in-state tuition for undocumented students and about which states currently have standards for establishing in-state eligibility.
• Know how to counsel undocumented students to help them qualify for financial support.
• Be able to identify alternative sources of financial support for undocumented students, both within your community as well as through institutional foundation/scholarship funds.

During this seminar, you will be given questions for self-assessment and a “next steps” guide to help you in working with undocumented students. You will also have a chance to ask questions and to benefit from Schuster’s extensive knowledge about these students and the challenges they face in attempting to gain entry into college. This is simply a great opportunity to learn how to help these deserving individuals escape the “undocumented trap” and obtain a college education.
