Is the process for applying to college and university for undocumented students any different when applying under AB 540?
For all UC and most CSU, you must apply in November of the year before you wish to begin the following fall. Two sections must be left BLANK: 1) Social Security Number slot should be left BLANK or enter zeros. 2) Immigration Status slot should be left BLANK Everything else should be filled out completely. Additional materials should NOT be sent with the application. Once you have been accepted by the university, you should fill out and send the AB 540 affidavit (California Non-Resident Tuition Exemption Request form). For community colleges, you are required to turn in the AB 540 affidavit when you submit your college application. The section requesting your social security may be left blank or you may enter “please assign an ID number”. For “immigration status,” you may list “AB 540”.
