Principal Investigator

If you have questions, contact Lucero Herrera, Principal Investigator (luceroherrera@ucla.edu), or Jenny Kim, Study Coordinator (jjkim@irle.ucla.edu)

Description

The UCLA Dream Resource Center is conducting an online survey to hear from undocumented Asian American Pacific Islander students about their experience within higher education about access to resources and opportunities. We are interested in learning about developing strategies to promote access and addressing the educational opportunity inequity. The data will be compiled into a final report that will be released at the end of 2024.

Online survey will be about 30 minutes and participants will receive a $20 e-gift card at the completion of the survey.

You must be 18 years or older to participate, identify as an AAPI, be undocumented (DACA, Non-DACA, TPS, etc) or formerly undocumented, and be attending/have attended a college or university in California, Texas, or New York, with enrollment after 2012.
