Margie LaCerra
Query: I have a friend who adopted a daughter at birth. According to a bio given them at the time of adoption, the biological father had two grandparents that were of Native American Indian descent, Cherokee. In our state the adoption records are sealed and can only be opened in life/death situations. This girl is now preparing for college. She is very intelligent, but not genuis status, and would like to go to a Big Ten School or an Ivy League School, but the money for tuition is a problem. If there is this American Indian bloodline, I’ve heard that she would be entitled to some government tuition money for college. Do we need to really go about getting a tribal certificate, or is just the bio from the case worker of the paternal family and maybe some genealogical documents to give background enough? Thank you for any assistance.
