From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
   My topic about undocumented students in the United States is an important issue. I can add facts about how undocumented students are beneficial to the society. Also that undocumented students came to America for a reason. A lot of them wanted a good education. Maybe in the country they were living in didn't support having an education. Also to say that undocumented students deserve scholarships because they work extremely hard in order to go to college. A lot of undocumented students can't afford to go to college without a scholarship or grant money. 
  Then they would be forced out of the United States. They would have to get a job in order to pay to go to college. That college is expensive and that a lot of their families I have to support others. Lot of their families give money to their family back in their country. I want to add in the data of how many undocumented students are trying to go to college. Also how many undocumented students that have been deported back to their country. 
   Some sources that I found that are reliable for me to use to add to the article. https://www2.ed.gov/about/overview/focus/supporting-undocumented-youth.pdf

My awareness of undocumented students and that they deserve to have an higher education regardless of their legal status. That there should be something in place for undocumented students to be able to afford college tuition. To format this entry by adding in personal stories, different perspectives, and data surrounding undocumented students in the United States. The audience is mainly to inform others of undocumented immigrants situations. That there should be people that are willing to help undocumented students especially if they were in the same situation. To inform the undocumented students that they have rights to an higher education and to getting a degree.

This topic about undocumented students in the United States is important to human rights in different ways. Such as the aspect of being able to obtain legal status in order to get into college. That every child has the right to have an education regardless of citizenship and residency when it comes to K-12 grade. But what about higher education and being able to have a degree. To have your dreams come true no matter what you want to be in life. You should have to work extremely hard just because you come from another country. You have to work to pay for school and still not be able to afford to pay the tuition, books, and other fees. Then you have to think about your family and your financial situation and they may not be able to afford to pay for you to go to college. Then you end up going to community college and not a four year university. All undocumented students should have a right to higher education under the law and in every states.
