Hello, my name is Ximena and I am starting law school this fall at the City University of New York. I received a scholarship, but it is not enough to cover tuition and books.In 2020, I graduated Columbia University and became my family's first college grad. I am hoping to become my family's first lawyer.I am an immigrant from Colombia who is living in the country entirely alone. I am currently a DACA recipient, which means I cannot apply to federal student loans, as well as most private loans. Without scholarships and fundraisers, I cannot attend law school.My dedication to law school comes from my dedication to immigrant communities. Throughout my time at Columbia I organized across NYC and the country, focusing on providing immigrant students with college access. I hope to continue my advocacy by becoming a lawyer.Once classes start, I will be the only undocumented trans woman attending law school in the entire United States. I am committed to earning my law degree and tearing down barriers that prevent people from entering the legal field. Share this page and help raise the right amount of money. Thank you for your help.
