Latinx Undocumented Students College Choice
Jesenia Rosales
Journal of Latinos and Education, v23 n1 p193-204 2024
Hossler and Gallagher's college choice model is a foundational model for understanding students' college choice experience. Various scholars have critiqued the model for assuming that all students have equitable access to college information and resources. Therefore, building on the literature on Latinx undocumented students college access experience, this paper offers a reconceptualization of Hossler and Gallagher's linear college choice model that centers the experiences of Latinx undocumented students. The model highlights findings from the literature, such as how undocumented status, immigration policies, family, high school networks, and financial aid are fundamental to Latinx undocumented student's college choice experience. The reimagined non-linear model focuses on three stages: predisposition phase, search phase, and choice phase. Two key aspect throughout the model is: undocumented status consciousness and fear and trust immigration status disclosure. The revised model serves a conceptual framework for practitioners, policymakers, and college access scholars to create equitable access opportunities for Latinx undocumented students.
