CURTIN, Chief Judge:
Mauclet v. Nyquist was instituted by a resident alien in the Western District of New York; Rabinovitch v. Nyquist was brought by a resident alien in the Eastern District of New York. In both cases, New York Education Law § 661(3) (McKinney’s Supp.1975), 1 which requires an applicant for New York State financial aid 2 to be a United States citizen or intend to become a citizen, was challenged as unconstitutional. The cases were consolidated and heard by a three-judge court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 2281, 2284. The facts as set out below are not in dispute. 3
