Do DACA students get aid?

Federal financial aid is not available to DACA students.

However, at Carolina DACA students can request Carolina Work-Study as long as they have eligible work authorization. They can apply to Carolina Works positions and earn work-study funds via a bi-weekly paycheck. Check out the request form to learn more.

Only Permanent Residents or citizens of the United States are eligible for federal and institutional funds. Follow the guidance on the FAFSA website to determine your eligibility status. International students are expected to be self-funded and able to cover their educational costs for the entirety of their studies.
