    Description

    An individual's level of education and income plays a role in socioeconomic background. Research shows that the amount of education an individual receives can be linked to their income level. The higher the level of education completed, there is a greater likelihood of achieving a higher paying job. Having a higher income can give more access to needed resources like healthier foods and safe shelter. Studies have shown that not having access to basic needs can negatively affect both physical and mental wellbeing. This study will look at how the past and current socioeconomic status of students affects their success in college.
