Meet my bestest friends from college. One of those girls migrated with her family from Guanajuato, Mexico when she was a teenager. Another of those girls migrated from Mexico when she was a little girl. She has undocumented status and therefore didn't get financial aid. She paid for her tuition in cash with the money she makes as a waitress. One of these girls has more than four brothers and sisters, one of which has cerebral palsy. Her father walked out of her life when she was a teenager leaving her and her mother to help raise the kids. One of these girls moved out of her home to focus on / be closer to school. However, without financial help from her parents she was forced to take on two jobs to help pay her rent, car, and other bills. This made it almost impossible to focus on school and her gpa plummeted. Regardless, she will be starting graduate school this fall. All of these girls are #first-generation college graduates who are hoping to inspire their younger siblings to attain a college degree. They are #latinas who were told NO! by fafsa, U.S. Gov, and even some college professors. However, they now have something most don't: a college degree. Most importantly, they are not stopping there. A bachelors was never the goal: a masters degree is. That is the mentality needed to succeed. We are Latinas and we can't be stopped.
