Description
International, refugee, and undocumented students in the United States face unique obstacles in pursuing higher education, launching careers, and building stable lives. The obstacles include an outdated federal immigration system and an uneven patchwork of state policies and institutional practices that systematically limit their ability to achieve education and career goals. Fiscally sponsored by the National Center for Civic Innovation, the Presidents’ Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration is a national network of over 550 presidents and chancellors of public and private colleges and universities serving over 5 million students in forty-twostates, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. It is the only national nonprofit organization exclusively focused on the intersection of higher education and immigration. With Corporation support, the Presidents’ Alliance will continue to educate policymakers about the importance of advancing immigration reforms that will improve educational and economic outcomes for immigrant students and the country overall.
