Re: Help: Parents want to move to.. Maricopa, Arizona
If your parents really cared about you, they will not move to AZ... Worst state of all with its stupid immigration laws. Go somewhere else until the matter is settled in the Supreme Court.

My dad pretty much strolled through the airport, got on a plane, and left. He wasn't detained or stopped by anybody.

You can't be denied admission to college. Take it up with the higher-ups of the college, or call the ACLU.
