註釋This study examined the impact that DACA and/or CA DREAM Act have had on undocumented students at CSUN. We were specifically interested in how DACA and CA DREAM Act influences students' educational experience in regards to grade point average (GPA), self-confidence, motivation, and engagement. Quantitative data and qualitative responses was collected from 31 undocumented students ages 18 to 31. A pearson bivariate correlation was computed to assess the relationship between self-confidence, motivation, and engagement. Results show that, while immigration laws have created some opportunities to obtain higher education, increase motivation, self-confidence and temporarily eliminate concerns of deportations there are limitations that remain. The policies' limitations continue to challenge recipients when trying to navigate the broken immigration system and the uncertainty of their status still remains. The researchers suggest for undocu-friendly spaces at CSUN and the overall need for an immigration reform.
