About Undocu Academy

The Undocu Academy is a 1-year program for undocumented high school seniors in New York City. The Undocu Academy provides:

  • One-on-one support & check-ins

  • 1-1 guidance with college and financial aid applications, 

  • workshops on options after high school and life skills as undocumented students, 

  • Scholarship application and research support

  • Political Education Workshops 

We require students to attend 2-hour sessions twice a week and actively communicate with facilitators. If you have any questions, contact us at edu@nysylc.org.

There’s so much support there... It was a community of people who were going through the same thing as me, and we were all able to talk about it and ask questions that we wouldn’t be able to ask our counselors
