<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I was recently asked about whether we offer resident tuition for students who qualify for the Jay Treaty. If youre like me and dont know what the Jay Treaty is, it appears to be a treaty from 1794 that grants border access to Canadian-born
individuals with at least 50% Native blood. To quote a document published by WWU in Fall 2023, attached, The right of Indigenous peoples under the Jay Treaty to live, work, and study in the United States has been protected by U.S. statute since 1952. The
same document states that students who qualify for Jay Treaty rights are eligible for federal student aid, but the treaty alone does not grant in-state tuition.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have some folks here who believe that the Jay Treat does grant in-state tuition, so my question is do you? Either way, can you point me to any documentation that covers this subject in Washington state? <o:p></o:p></p>
