Am doing some more checking into this, but I was astounded at what I've found so far:

The public universities in Mexico are FREE for Mexican nationals and no entrance exam is required. The Universidad de San Carlos in Guatemala cost about fourteen dollars to register. In general, most public national universities in Central and South America, for example cost less than one semester’s worth of college textbooks in the U.S.

WHY DO WE NEED A DREAM ACT?!?!?!?
