No Citizenship May Mean No College for Some Longtime Arkansas Residentsnew
As a graduate of an Arkansas high school, Cecilia might have been eligible for in-state tuition until recently.

Then, after an AP article reported that undocumented students might be enrolled as residents, Gov. Mike Beebe directed the state Department of Higher Education to make sure colleges had stopped the practice.
