Education is closely associated in determining a person's life chances. Socioeconomic status (SES) plays a critical role in higher education in America today. Socioeconomic status (SES) refers to ranking based on occupation, income, and other social components such as education. Inequality in college enrollment and degree attainment has been a major concern in our society. Students' SES appears to activate the opportunities and outcomes they will achieve in postsecondary school. Sociologists tend to recognize that the social course is still an important aspect in today's society. Furthermore, it affects our life chances and choices. Education contributes to income attainment and occupational prestige. Furthermore, there is inequality between men and women from contrasting social backgrounds in terms of education, particularly in college. Education serves as a ladder to success and social mobility. In America, students from low socioeconomic status (SES) families have always been a part of the nation's higher education and are few in number. Socioeconomic status has crucial effects on students and their academic performance. The topic of SES and its impact on college education has been debated for decades. Social ranking parallels whether or not you succeed in college. SES insinuates a greater impact on low SES students than on high SES students. Low SES students are deprived in schools due to a lack of an academic environment and limit their chances of academic success in school. These circumstances cause low-SES schools to be low in compliance and enforce the idea that only determined and flexible students can avoid poor academic achievement. Low SES students are said to be "equally... middle of the paper... and men. Mention the history of gender inequality: how history influences our society. "Let's not forget the history of women's rights. Women are not mentioned in the Constitution… There are natural differences between men and women; Women are seen as weaker and are expected to stay at home, take care of the family. Furthermore, it might be useful to provide some details on the role of economics in our society. The college outcomes of students from different socioeconomic backgrounds vary. If social deprivation decreases, low-SES students should have similar experiences and outcomes. Social background continues to negatively influence their university outcomes if students with low SES perform differently or perform less well (Walpole viriya.net 2003). Different opportunities arise from differences in resources and status (Link on diversityweb.org 2008).
