  • Supporting Undocumented and DACA Students at UConn

    The University continues to be an environment that strives to be safe and secure for all students. The recent executive administrative action ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program in six months has prompted questions about the impact this will have on members of the UConn community who are undocumented. UConn continues to offer support for undocumented students. The Office of Diversity and Inclusion website has updated information about the DACA revocation and how the University supports DACA and undocumented students.
