So, you at least tell us if these asylum seekers are put ahead of our own citizens in the way of free education? It would only be a guess, since it is pilot still growing, so won't hold you to it.
I already answered this; there are plenty of programs in NY for financial aid to go to college (here's one: https://portal.311.nyc.gov/article/?kanumber=KA-02113), so I don't see how targeting a group that would be ineligible for them is putting them ahead of others.

Asylum seekers can’t be illegal.

Perhaps you need to read the 1952 refugee convention and its protocol to refresh your memory and comprehend why you’re post is not worth reading.

Correct, I actually meant to type legal to make a solid point of my OP. Sorry
