Children of illegal immigrants fear exposing parents on college financial aid form: report
Fox News
High school seniors whose parents are in the country illegally worry a federal student aid application could raise red flags about their parents' immigration status.
Hannah Ray Lambert is an associate producer/writer with Fox News Digital Originals.
The teen and her father recently visited college counselor Lynda McGee, according to the report. Her father wanted McGee to help the student fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, the form commonly known as FAFSA, which schools use to calculate Pell Grants, federal loans and other financial aid for students.
But the application calls for parents' Social Security numbers, and students and counselors fear a missing entry could raise questions about immigration status.
