Educational Resources for New Arrivals and DACA Students http://www2.ed.gov/about/overview/focus/immigration-resources.html

This site provided by the U.S. Department of Education is a wonderful resource for finding all the education related regulations and opportunities available to those who have immigrated into the United States. Whether you are looking for: K-12, higher education, or services for specific populations, this is the site to go to.

Information on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Students is very complete and up to date. There is information on student loans, how to apply for financial aid, loan forgiveness plans, resources for adult education, No Child Left Behind, and even a link to the newly proposed immigration reform. This is an excellent place to become informed, in a central place, about what is currently in effect.
