Article Synopsis
- The study looked at the different school experiences of Black students in the U.S. who are either from American families or families that immigrated here.
- Researchers tracked 101 Black students from high school to college to see how their backgrounds affected their success in college.
- They found that immigrant students did better in college than U.S.-born students at first, but when considering other factors like grades and family income, being an immigrant didn’t matter as much for college success.
