Legal Resource Hub for Undocumented Students

Welcome to Northwestern University’s Legal Resource Hub for Undocumented Students. 

This webpage provides information relevant to undocumented students, including information on flying while undocumented and understanding Real ID requirements. Northwestern also offers resources on key topics such as considerations before moving out of state, obtaining employment visas, and exploring work authorization options. Our goal is to empower undocumented students with the knowledge and tools necessary to make informed decisions and confidently move forward in their journey.
