Kelly recommended returning to a policy written in December 2001 that bars undocumented immigrants from taking college-level courses unless they meet standards outlined in federal laws
That 2001 decision said undocumented immigrants who are high school students can take college-level courses, and undocumented immigrants of any age can enroll in non-college level courses or programs, such as English as a second language.
The decision said both positions appeared to correspond with federal law. Undocumented immigrants of any age who meet certain federal standards, such having been subjected to “extreme cruelty,” can also take college-level courses, the decision said.
Officials with El Pueblo in Raleigh and Student Action with Farmworkers in Durham did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment.
