DACA and undocumented students
You do not need to determine or confirm a student’s DACA or undocumented immigration status if they do not volunteer this information to you. However, if you become aware of this status during admission, enter only the following minimal information to protect the confidentiality of this student population:

Remember, all students can attend Tulane regardless of immigration status. There is no federal or state law requiring the university to collect proof of immigration status or verify that the applicant's status allows study in the U.S.
When admitting noncitizen students who are in visa types other than F-1 or J-1, it is the responsibility of the applicant to understand their immigration status and whether it allows study in the U.S. If the applicant has questions about their status, they should consult an immigration attorney. For undocumented or DACA students, more information is available at http://tulane.edu/undocumented
