Delaware State University will be welcoming those students known as Dreamers.
These are the children of undocumented immigrants who were not born in this country.
The university joined with TheDream.US that provides privately-funded scholarships after President Obama issued his executive order allowing these children to stay in the country.
His order authorized them to access to such things as documents for work and a drivers’ license.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that there are 16 other states that have effectively kept these students from attending institutions of higher education.
The students will begin attending the school this fall just as the presidential election comes to a climax with Republican presumptive nominee Donald Trump promising to deport all undocumented immigrants from the country.
