California has the largest number of undocumented people living and working in the state (roughly 25%). Otis College is committed to supporting undocumented students who are interested in pursuing an art and design education at Otis College. If you are undocumented, you are welcome to apply for admission. Once admitted and enrolled, our staff is committed to connecting with you to be sure you are supported and understand your rights as a college student. If you need any help or have any questions, you are encouraged to contact our Primary Designated Student Official (PDSO), Alia Saeed located on our One Stop. The Office of Student Affairs is another place on campus that can assist in any personal or academic issues students may be experiencing.
Finally, we encourage you to visit DACA for information on your rights and resources.
