The 2020 Census provides critical data that lawmakers, business owners, teachers, and many others use to provide daily services, products, political representation, and support for you and your community. College students, especially those who come from diverse socioeconomic and demographic backgrounds or who are first-generation students, have a significant potential to be impacted by the resources the Census will provide. Invitations to participate in the 2020 Census will be sent out on April 1, 2020.
