Black students from immigrant backgrounds are a growing population in higher education. However, there is little research exploring their experiences as they make decisions about whether and where they will attend college. This qualitative study of 23 Black immigrants attending a public, selective research university explores how individual habitus, or worldview, shapes the predisposition, search, and institutional choice phases of college choice. Findings suggest participants' habitus is strongly influenced by culture, prestige, and the value parents place on education. These forces pervade the college choice process, establishing students' decisions to attend college early in their lives, as well as the emphasis placed on balancing prestige with financial accessibility in the search and institutional choice processes.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)
