It is estimated that about 1.8 million undocumented young adults are eligible for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). With DACA, undocumented young adults can work legally in the U.S. with a two-year work authorization subject to renewal and are considered low priority for deportation. In addition, with an external application (advanced parole) and with approval, they can travel outside the United States. The passage of DACA provides a unique opportunity to not only understand the educational and occupational trajectories of undocumented young adults, but to also to discern the impact this policy has on other aspects of their daily lives. This dissertation looks at undocumented young adults' physical mobility pre-and-post DACA and how it relates to their educational trajectories. Because of their immigration status, young undocumented adults had no access to driver's licenses, could not travel out of the country, and could not work legally in the United States prior to DACA. This lack of access limited many aspects of their physical mobility and access to educational opportunities. Physical mobility is a key concept to consider when researching the social and cultural life of undocumented immigrants, because mobility exposes people to new places, opportunities, relationships, and ideas. This study is grounded in "geography of opportunity" and interrogates racist nativism in order to focus on geography, access to opportunities, physical mobility, and how political climates can influence DACAmented young adults' educational opportunities. To answer the research questions, I conducted 20 semi-structured interviews, used survey data and spatial data. Findings include a descriptive analysis of DACA applicants in 2012 and GIS maps that give context to what mobility looked like for undocumented young adults before the implementation of DACA. The interviews revealed that mobility is not just physical but also has a psychological component that is equally important. The psychological aspect that helps dictate physical mobility--what I call "undocumented spatial consciousness"--is both sub-conscious and conscious. I argue that undocumented spatial consciousness is shaped by many factors, including geography, lived experiences, and immigration status, which creates "real" or "perceived" limitations on where, when, and how to be mobile. The findings of this dissertation provide insight into other DACA benefits and offers recommendations on the direction of future research.
