After reading about that girl who was deported back to Peru and talking to my daughter who also knows illegals that go to Miami Dade College I began to wonder how they are paying for it. These illegals are considered international students. As international students twelve credits in summer terms A ad B combined cost $3,022.00 and twelve credits in the spring term cost $3,150.00 and I don't think that those costs include mandatory medical insurance coverage.

My question is how can they afford this? Also to be an international student you need to leave the United States and go back to your country of citizenship to get your F1 visa. You also need proof of ability to pay for tuition, books, and other necessaties such as school supplies, transportation, and personal items as well. This proof is not required for one semester but the entire time it takes to get your degree.
