本文利用的数据从一个正在进行的ESRC项目选择高等教育。它主要侧重于高等教育非传统申请人的经验。虽然这些学生并不是整个大学入学队列的典型，但他们的叙述提出了与种族，阶级和高等教育选择过程有关的重要问题。这些“成功故事”揭示了令人关注的重要原因，也是值得庆祝的原因。特别是，他们在选择过程中的经历与享有特权的中产阶级同行有着质的不同，突出了关键的阶级和种族差异和不平等。
This paper draws on data from an on-going ESRC project on choice of higher education. It focuses primarily on the experiences of non-traditional applicants to higher education. Although these students are not typical of the entire university entry cohort, their narratives raise important issues in relation to race, class and higher education choice processes. These 'success stories' reveal important causes for concern as well as reasons for celebration. In particular, their experiences of the choice process are qualitatively different from those of their more privileged middle-class counterparts, highlighting key class and racial differences and inequalities.
