    I don't think it's possible. They need to obtain a green card first. When I applied for college you had to be a legal US citizen.

    Or you would have to be in this country on a student visa.

    There was one of those news TV programs, like 48 Hours, but maybe not that exact show, which showed some illegal citizens going to college. One was even going to nursing school. So it can be done, but I am sure not very legally. Like Fr. Chuck stated, perhaps they lie about being a citizen and papers can be forged easily enough. Several ConAgra plants were investigated and the human resources administrators were the ones who phonied the documents for the workers. Great system, eh?

    Usually with a student visa, work visa, or green card.
