Abstract
The purpose of this exploratory qualitative study was to identify if and how a community college provided services to meet the needs of undocumented students seeking STEM degrees during the pandemic. The study is grounded in the framework of Institutional Undocu-Competence (IU-C) and draws from interviews with 16 students at an urban community college. The findings are critical for community colleges to develop Institutional Undocu-Competence for undocumented students in STEM during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
