He is quite intelligent and just graduated with a good STEM degree and nice job. She is hard working, finishing up a bachelor's from a community college and works part time but barely average student.
They also have different race, religions, socioeconomic status and cultures. He is conventionally handsome and she is rather plain. His family is intact and traditional. Hers parents are divorced and one remarried. He was coddled all his life, she wasn't privileged that way. She attended school on financial aid but has some credit debt, he was on merit scholarship and has no debt. He is a bit immature and spoiled.
His family is supportive (after some initial hesitation) paying for the wedding and helping set up an apartment and all and for sure would be supportive in future as well. I'm hopeful for them as she seems like a sensible young woman but do wonder what are the struggles of such couples in long term? Only couples I know who made it against difficult odds were bit older and knew each other for several years.

It seems you have spun a whole Lifetime movie around this couple who are just starting out. MYOB and write them a check.
Also, is it possible you have confused a regional university with community college? Or do you not know the difference between an associate's degree and a bachelor's degree?

She can't be labeled as a loser, just because she wasn't born in a family compatible with good looks, high intelligence, financial and relational stability of this guy's family.

Only time will tell. Some make it and some don’t. If they both grew up in the U.S., then they have more in common than you think.
