Undocumented Coder

Welcome! This website is a survival guide for undocumented students in the U.S. majoring in computer science. My goal is to give you tips on how you can succeed in college and graduate school as an undocumented immigrant with or without Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).

As for me, I am a CS PhD student at one of {MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, CMU} (undisclosed for sake of anonymity). If you’d like to know a bit more about me, check out the About page.

Otherwise, feel free to check out the Advice page for tips on succeeding in college (getting good grades, getting internships and research positions, applying to graduate school, etc.) and succeeding in graduate school (doing good research, balancing workload, etc.).

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out at undocumentedcoder at gmail dot com. Hope you find this resource useful! :)
