Also, the California-Mexico Studies Center (CMSC) is pleased to share the great news that as of today, 20 of the 34 Dreamers participating in our Summer 2017 California-Mexico Dreamers Study Abroad Program have been approved for Advance Parole Travel Authorization by USCIS.
This is specially great news given that this is the first time the CMSC will be taking a new group of Dreamers to study in Mexico under the Trump Administration.
Also, keep in mind that the CMSC is currently accepting applications for our CMD Winter 2017 Program, which will take place in Mexico City from Dec. 22, 2017 to Jan. 14, 2018.
