From what we know, Rubio's alternative is aimed at helping people like us: young undocumented immigrants, who have graduated high school and plan to attend college or serve in the military.
However, we've also been told that there will be other requirements that were not in the original DREAM Act or DREAM Act 2010, such as a date of entry.

Quote:
According to the plan put forth by Senator Marco Rubio, in order to qualify for the school option, students must attend and complete their education which would allow them the opportunity to obtain a student visa in the process. With this, they can obtain legal IDs and be able to travel without the fear that they will be detained and deported. With the option of the military, they can choose to enlist in the military branch of their choice, Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines and make it their career or serve their time and seek to move on to their adjustment of status. If they choose to stay on this path, they will compete with everyone else who is on the path to Legal Permanent Residency by way of a Non-immigrant Visa. - Thread

Rubio’s newly proposed version of the bill, which he plans to unveil in the next few weeks, would eliminate the specific path to citizenship for these young people outlined in former versions. But it would still grant them non-immigrant visas, allowing them to live, study and work in the United States while following existing routes toward naturalization. The visas would be available only to high school graduates with no criminal record who were brought into the U.S. before a still-to-be-established cutoff date. - Thread
