"This book shines a critical light on migrant youth access to higher education, shifting the discussion away from complementary pathways, to explore this issue through the lives of migrants already living within the Canadian border. Young people at the centre of this study are not defined by their immigration status, but as students with lives and dreams that can be both recognised and met by Canadian universities. The book effectively translates research grounded in practice, into a ready-made agenda for universities to pick up and run with." --Rebecca Murray, University of Sheffield and Universities of Sanctuary "Paloma E. Villegas and Tanya Aberman have been instrumental in the development and implementation of a unique initiative promoting access to higher education for migrant students, regardless of immigration status, in Canada. In this timely book, they shed light on immigrant students' lived experiences in the education system and highlight the key role of agency and advocacy in advancing equitable education for all." -- Idil Atak, Toronto Metropolitan University quitable education for all." -- Idil Atak, Toronto Metropolitan University quitable education for all.
