As negotiations between the U.S. government and Congress have failed to provide legal status for the “Dreamers,” many Mexican children brought to the U.S. illegally are returning to Mexico in record numbers, many of them with college educations and dreams of starting a better life in Mexico. This could bring a massive opportunity for Mexico to benefit from a wave of Western-educated Mexicans, as well as an influx of money and resources from abroad.

The Impact on Education​

The return of these college-educated dreamers is already having an impact on the Mexican educational system. Institutions like the Autonomous University of Chihuahua are offering free tuition for Dreamers who were educated in the United States, allowing them to transfer their credits and continue their studies south of the border. Additionally, this influx of talent has bolstered research initiatives at universities all over Mexico and is helping to close gaps between American and Mexican education systems.

The Economic Benefits​

This influx also brings with it increased economic benefits for Mexico. According to recent data, there is evidence that these returning Dreamers have more money than most Mexicans living in their home country, making them more likely to invest in local businesses or start companies themselves—creating jobs in the process. These investments have already had an impact on cities like Puebla where entrepreneurs are creating new opportunities by offering services such as web design or medical treatments that weren’t available before they returned home from America.

Potential Challenges​


Of course, there are potential challenges that come along with this influx of people; language barriers can be difficult to overcome given that many Dreamers return speaking only English - though efforts are being made by schools across Mexico to teach English classes for returning Dreamers so that they can more easily integrate into society upon their return home. In addition, some worry about a potential “brain drain” if too many talented individuals leave America for good - though it should be noted that most Dreamers do not plan on staying permanently but rather use this opportunity as a chance to find new opportunities at home while remaining connected with friends and family still living north of the border.

With no legislative deal providing legal status for Dreamers in sight, many Mexican children brought up in America now find themselves back in their homeland – bringing with them a wealth of knowledge acquired through higher education and experience living abroad. This could prove beneficial not just economically but also socially as these young people look towards creating new opportunities at home while remaining connected with friends back in America. With time – and proper support – we could see a real transformation within Mexico due to this influx of western-educated individuals looking to make an impact on their communities through innovation and entrepreneurship – something all Mexicans can benefit from!

Who are the dreamers?
  • Although they come from all over the world, about eight in 10 came from Mexico.
  • 45% live in California or Texas.
  • They pay an estimated $1.7 billion a year in taxes.
  • They have 250,000 children who are U.S. citizens.
