The Trump administration has announced the termination of free tuition for undocumented immigrants at technical and career schools, ending a policy that originated during the Clinton administration and was maintained under the Biden administration. This policy change, effective August 9, 2025, requires schools to verify immigration status before providing federal funds for career and adult education programs. The Department of Education stated that this move will halt taxpayer funding, which previously amounted to over $130 million annually, from supporting illegal immigrants in postsecondary education. In addition, the administration is restricting undocumented immigrants from enrolling in Head Start, a federally funded early-childhood education program. The Department of Health and Human Services confirmed that undocumented children will no longer be eligible for enrollment in Head Start preschools, aiming to prevent individuals living in the country illegally from benefiting from federal programs. These measures reflect a broader effort by the Trump administration to limit federal benefits and funding access for immigrants without legal status.
