Call for Papers: “Supporting College Students of Immigrant Origin: New Insights from Research, Policy, and Practice”

The volume will feature chapters across 3 themes: pre-college experiences of students of immigrant origin (e.g., cultural & social capital, college applications, family involvement, navigating documentation); students’ navigation of the college context (e.g., first-year transition, involvement, major selection, career development); & perspectives on transitions from college into next life phases (e.g., graduation, first jobs, graduate school & beyond). In exploring these topics, this volume seeks to bring together emerging conversations about the unique experiences of students of immigrant origin in higher education.
