NEW YORK (AP) — City University of New York is returning thousands of dollars to about 150 immigrant students who live illegally in the U.S. and overpaid for their tuition.
A student group called CUNY Dreamers told school officials late last year that many such immigrant students in New York paid higher, out-of-state tuition even though they were eligible, by law, for in-state rates, a difference of about $4,000 per semester.

Stanley De la Cruz, a student at the University at Albany and chairman of a group called SUNY Dreamers, said he has not talked with SUNY yet but plans to do so.
