HB 2787, Undocumented Students, and Oregon State University

On April 2, 2013, Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber signed into law the tuition equity bill (HB 2787).   The bill allows undocumented students to attend Oregon's public universities as in-state residents if they meet the following qualifications: 

  • have studied in the United States for five years; 
  • attended an Oregon high school for at least three years;
  • graduated from an Oregon high school (or received equivalent certification);
  • enroll at a public Oregon University no more than three years after graduating from high school; and
  • show intention to become a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident.
