Duvinson Jeanty graduated with a degree in finance, his son Ben earned a degree in psychology - both from William Paterson University - on Friday, May 19.
Their achievement was even more significant because they are the first members of their family to get college degrees.
Speaking to Fox News, Ben said: "It was amazing. Never in a million years did I ever dream of going to school with my father."
Duvinson is a Haitian immigrant who first arrived in the US in the mid-1980s and worked as a bus driver for 27 years before retiring in 2015. Ben said his father's hard work always set an example to the rest of his family.
