First-class passengers arriving at Ellis Island were allowed to forego inspection due to the belief that they posed a lower risk of carrying diseases and were less likely to be a burden on public resources. They typically had the financial means to support themselves and were perceived as more desirable immigrants. This policy reflected the social hierarchies and attitudes of the time, which favored wealthier individuals over poorer ones in the Immigration process.
