Abstract
Undocumented students account for approximately 427,000 (2%) of all students in higher education. Of those students approximately 14,201 (2%) pursue a post-secondary education in the state of Georgia. This presentation will examine the context of undocumented students in higher education and ways we can best support our undocumented students and their families. Participants will also identify critical issues associated with a student's immigration status and ways to best support their social and emotional needs.
