Undocumented & Undeterred: Today’s Dreamer Student

Mar 11, 2021

3:00pm – 3:30pm CT

Of the 65,000 undocumented students who graduate annually from U.S. high schools, less than 10% continue on to college. Hear directly from Dreamers and those who advise them on the current state of DACA and best practices to help undocumented students complete college during a global pandemic. Together, we’ll dive into navigating the legal, social, academic, health, and financial barriers that exist for undocumented students with the goal of increasing graduation rates.
