For those that have GED, they will be able to apply and for those out of school with no diploma or GED will not be able to apply. I don't think it is going to be as easy as going back to school. For children that will be in the same situation lets say 10 years from now will not be able to apply at all because they where not in the US on the date on June 15, 2012.

I have had a person tell me they are going to buy a GED, yeah I doubt it will be that easy but all that will happen is they will slow down the process for those of us that genuinely deserve it and qualify but they will not be approved.

It doesn't say anything about that being a requirement by June 15th,2012 that the person must meet that particular requirement.He simply have to just be in school to qualify.Why he dropped out I have no idea but according to the law he qualifies!
