Undocumented & DACA Students

Paying for College
Undocumented and DACA students are not eligible for state or federal financial aid. We encourage you to review the BHCC Payment Plan and apply for BHCC scholarships.
As a DACA student, you are eligible for tuition credit if you’ve received the John and Abigail Adams Scholarship.
Beginning Fall 2023, the City of Boston is expanding eligibility for the Tuition Free Community College (TFCC) Plan to include all Boston residents regardless of age, income, or immigration status. Current and prospective students who are undocumented, have DACA or TPS students may be eligible if they meet all other eligibility requirements.
