Abstract
This study aims to explore the experiences of the students with parental responsibilities. It
sought to elucidate what is like to be a parent and a student at the same time. Descriptive method
(case study) was used in this study that refers to the opportunity to capture rich descriptive data
about the struggling student, motivated student, and surviving student. The constructed
questionnaire was validated by an expert as a guide in the interview. The respondents are students
of Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University South La Union Campus who came from
different Colleges and ages at 18-35 of years old and have at least one child not older than 18
years old and above. The researchers found that the respondents had almost the same experiences
enfacing their dual roles. The respondents were strongly motivated by the desire for their personal
achievement, and the opportunity to provide a better future for their children. Education provided
the respondents with a sense of growth, pride and achievement, as well as developing their
professional identity.
