Seattle University Won't Rescind Dreamer Students' Financial Aid

Following the announcement from University of Washington president Ana Mari Cauce that the UW would continue to financially aid students affected by today's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) decision, Seattle University president Stephen Sundborg has pledged to do the same.

Read the Jesuit university president's letter to students below.

Dear Seattle University Community,

I want to express my deep disappointment to our students and alumni who are directly impacted by President Trump’s decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA) and begin phasing it out six months from now. While we are hopeful Congress will pass legislation to maintain the DACA protections, we know how difficult and painful this current situation is for you.

Seattle University is a welcoming and inclusive institution and campus community. We stand with you and remain committed to doing everything we can to support you. We value the many contributions you make to our society, workforce and university.
