Karla's story is one of courage and transformation. At just 6 years old, she crossed the Mexico-US border twice, first with her mother and then her grandmother. Growing up undocumented, Karla navigated countless challenges, from language barriers to limited access to healthcare and dental care. It wasn't until she was 12 that she discovered her undocumented status. But Karla's journey didn't end there. She eventually obtained DACA and later became a US citizen. Join us as Karla shares her powerful story of hope, adaptation, and self-discovery.

Diversity Visa lottery AKA Green Card Lottery Q&A

As an international student, I was struck by the high cost of living in America. Determined to find affordable solutions, I stumbled upon the Diversity Visa Lottery (DV Lottery). This life-changing opportunity offers eligible individuals a chance to obtain a US permanent resident visa. I encourage fellow international students and immigrants to explore this option. Research eligibility requirements, application deadlines, and rules to increase your chances. The DV Lottery can be a game-changer; take advantage of it to secure a brighter future in the United States.
