I’m a first-generation Haitian American. My parents came to the United States in the 1970s and were both college graduates. Growing up, I did not have a clear vision of what I wanted to do after high school, but my parents were clear that I was going to college. In high school, I was a good student with a lot of extracurricular activities and great recommendations, but I did not score as high as I wanted to on the SATs.
