Abstract
College students who care for children while earning a degree have been on a steady incline. This population of students, unfortunately, most of the time, lacks the resources needed to complete college and earn their degrees. There are many benefits to earning a college degree, which includes substantially higher pay, in most cases, as well as the ability to stand out to employers. Thus, making earning a college degree substantially important.
This research has found that college students with children experience many added stressors. In addition, this research has found that college students with children are not receiving all of the resources that they are entitled to. Lastly, this research has found that on-campus housing is imperative for college students with children.
