Beyond Dreaming – Washington State Scholarship List
for Undocumented Students
For students by students
Beyond HB 1079 & Beyond Dreaming
The Beyond HB 1079 Conference was started by Royal City’s undocumented student
Yuriana Garcia during her second year of college at the University of Washington
Seattle. As an undocumented student at the UW, she saw that there was a need to
bring awareness to the community about undocumented students. The Beyond HB
1079 Committee was formed that year in 2012 and on March 29rd, 2012 the 1st annual
Beyond HB 1079 Conference was held at the University of Washington Seattle. In
2013, the 2nd annual Beyond HB 1079 Conference was held at the University of
Washington Bothell on March 30th, 2013. It was also the year that the first Beyond
Dreaming Scholarship List for Undocumented Students was released as a project from
Seattle’s undocumented student Alejandra Pérez, from the University of Washington
Bothell, as she saw the need to have a centralized list for students in Washington
State to go to when seeking scholarships to fund their education. This project was
made possible in 2013 with the support of the Mary Gates Leadership Scholarship. For
updates, visit us at www.beyondhb1079.org.
Collective Contribution We would like to thank and recognize everyone who helped in the making of the scholarship list. The scholarships are gathered and updated through different public resources that our team utilizes. On behalf of the Beyond HB 1079 Committee Team, we want to thank you for your contribution to this year’s 6th Annual Beyond HB 1079 Conference and Beyond Dreaming Scholarship List. It is allies, advocates, and Undocu leaders like you that help make a difference in the lives of students who are trying to attain a higher education. A warm thank you to the founder and creator of the scholarship project Alejandra Pérez and the following contributors Yuriana Garcia, Carlos Escutia, Agustin Garcia, Mikaella Quiba, Ambar Aleman, Jannette Zarate, Karen Gamez, and other volunteers who helped compile scholarships.
House Bill 1079 In May 7, 2003, House Bill (HB) 1079 was signed into law by Governor Gary Locke. This law allows students who have lived in Washington State for three years or more to be considered “residents” when they pay for their tuition and fees at Washington State colleges and universities. HB 1079 does not change a student’s legal citizenship status. To qualify for resident tuition, students must have:
1. Earned a high school diploma or equivalent (GED) from a Washington State high school;
2. Lived in Washington State for three years prior to receiving a high school diploma or GED;
3. Lived continually in Washington since earning the high school diploma or GED;
4. Meet the college or university admission requirements expected of all other students.
The Affidavit is a confidential statement verifying that the student qualifies to pay resident tuition, and that they will seek legal permanent residency when legally permitted to do so. If an Affidavit is not provided or available, the student should ask a trusted relative, friend, teacher, or counselor to request it from the institution they plan to attend. The Affidavit is available at the following link Affidavit.
Senate Bill 6523 On February 26, 2014, Governor Jay Inslee signed SB 6523, also known as the Washington State Dream Act/REAL Hope Act. This law expands eligibility for the Washington State Need Grant to non-citizens who meet the program’s eligibility requirements. The three residency criteria are listed below:
1. Have graduated from a Washington high school or obtained a GED in Washington
2. Have lived in Washington for three years prior to, and continuously since, earning the high school diploma or equivalent
3. Sign a HB 1079 affidavit (written promise) to file an application to become a permanent resident of the United States when eligible to apply
*Students granted deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) must also complete and sign and HB 1079 Affidavit. DACA is not mandatory to apply for this.
There is a questionnaire you can fill out to determine your eligibility. Application can be found at www.readysetgrad.org/wasfa. Students must re-apply every academic year starting on October 1st and must submit by the school(s)’s priority deadline (varies by school).
*Please note that the information provided to the institution and WASFA is protected, through FERPA, and will not be shared with a third party. **
