Undergraduate student under asylum pending status

Paying for College
1

<p>Hello. I am in Texas looking to transfer into a 4 year institution ( Texas Tech University) from my current community college. I am currently under asylum pending status (with an EAD, A-number and SSN) but I got in-state tuition at my current college. With my current status, can I apply for federal or state financial aid? My court date is set for 2016.</p>

<p>I don’t believe so. My understanding is that asylum must be granted. Here is the info from the FAFSA website: <a href=“https://fafsa.ed.gov/help/fotw15a.htm”>https://fafsa.ed.gov/help/fotw15a.htm&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Thank you for all your answers. It really helped me out. At least I got in-state tuition!</p>

<p>Have you studied in a Texas High School? How come you became eligible for in-state tuition?</p>
