Did you know that more than 4 out of 10 Latino students (44 percent) are the first in their families to go to college?

This data from Excelencia in Education is not only accurate but reflects what many of us have experienced in our homes: staying on track is non-negotiable.

The reality is that for many Latinos, graduating from college is their family’s lifeline. But the pressure to excel is sometimes too overwhelming, and it brings loneliness and anxiety, especially when considering expenses.

Have you seen the price of college textbooks lately? It’s wild out there!

Still, this shouldn’t deter anyone from making their college experience the best it can be – and there are ways to do this. 

Finding your community

From stumbling upon the perfect study group, extracurricular activities, participating in local events, or other events, there are many opportunities where you can vibe with other like-minded people.
