Abstract

This qualitative, narrative study explores the stories of three DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipients in the state of South Carolina who have had to face educational and career restrictions due to their immigration status. This article examines how the students came to the country, their early educational experiences, how they learned about the state restrictions, and how it has affected their lives. A common theme emerges of the students having to cross a second border of state policy in order to pursue their educational and career goals.
