'With our current political climate, it doesn’t look promising that I will be able to work after college. Still, I know that instead of sitting around waiting for the opportunity, I will go out and find it myself.'
For many students, back-to-school season means the end of long, lazy summer afternoons and worrying about what to wear on the first day. For people like me, undocumented students, the concerns are a bit different. It’s hard to complain because our education is what will essentially bring our families forward. I’m no longer the eight-year-old girl, scared and confused about attending my first day of school in the United States.
After getting my acceptances, I thought the only problem I would have was deciding what school was right for me. As the acceptance letters came in and I told my mom about them, her first question was always how far away they were. Unfortunately for me, one of my top choices, UC Riverside, was not an option she was keen on.
