No in-state tuition for undocumented students

Students who are not lawfully present in the United States cannot get in-state tuition in Oklahoma. They also cannot get any residence-based scholarships or state financial aid. The law removes the old high-school-plus-two-years pathway from statute and deletes its affidavit paperwork and grandfather rules. The State Regents can write rules to carry this out. The changes take effect immediately.
