How do I qualify for in-state tuition as a student with immigration status?
You qualify for in-state tuition if you have resided in New York State for at least one year AND one of the following:
You are a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or have a permanent resident application pending. (Note: You must have filed a Form I-485. Having a pending or approved I-130 or I-140 petition is not sufficient; or
You have asylum, withholding of removal, or refugee status; you have temporary protected status (TPS); the USCIS granted you deferred action status; you are a "late amnesty" applicant; you are a NACARA applicant; or, you are a Cuban or humanitarian parolee; or
You are in one of the following nonimmigrant statuses: A, E, G, H-1B, H-1C, H-4 (where the primary status holder is here in H-1B or H-1C status), I, K, L, N, O, R, S, T, U, or V.
****** doesn't that say that you qualify if the USCIS granted you deffered action?******

You will be fine once you have your ss#. I would suggest you apply to a CUNY college, and you will be able to get in-state tuition.
