Yes, undocumented students qualify for state and institutional financial aid. For more information regarding the application process, please contact the financial aid office at 1 (575) 624-7400.

New Mexico State Bill 582 (SB 582), passed by the legislature in 2005, states that “A public post-secondary education institution shall not deny admission to a student on account of the student’s immigration status.” SB 582 also allows ENMU-Roswell to administer State financial aid to undocumented students. Additionally, SB 582 grants in-state tuition rates for students “who have attended a secondary educational institution in New Mexico for at least one year and who have either graduated from a New Mexico High School or received a general educational development certificate in New Mexico.”
