Abstract
This ethnographic study explores the complex influence of family members on the educational aspirations of a group of diverse immigrants and refugees in New York State. Although families fostered high educational aspirations in participants, experiences of economic precarity, high‐stakes exams, and downward mobility constrained youths' capacity to realize their goals. Despite these challenges, participants demonstrated a high level of determination and commitment to families as they sought to balance familial duties with educational success.
