As in other nations, higher education has many benefits for individual participants and for communities in the United States. But, the opportunity to attain higher education is unequal. To understand the forces that contribute to higher education attainment in the United States, this essay first provides a brief overview of the characteristics of the nation’s higher education system.

Leadership, who connected me with opportunities to learn more about myself, my profession, and leadership within the educational system. Specifically, I would like to acknowledge my committee chair, Dr. Brooke Soles for mentoring me through my dissertation journey and supporting me every step of the way! I would also like to acknowledge Cohort 15 for their neverending encouragement and support. We are THAT cohort! I want to especially acknowledge someone who went on this journey with me and was a great source of support and strength: Ernesto Feliciano Orozco Jr., my husband, partner, and friend. Finally, to my family, friends and students who were my source of inspiration for pursuing college access research and my doctoral degree. I love you all and proud to share this accomplishment as it "takes a village". ¡Sí se puede! ¡Lo hice! xi VITA EDUCATION 2022 Doctor of Education, Educational Leadership, Joint Doctoral Program
