这项定性研究探讨了十名成功的第一代大学生 (FGCS) 的高中到大学过渡经历。参与者是美国一所历史悠久的黑人大学的大四学生。使用通用的定性研究设计，包括深入的半结构化访谈来收集和分析数据。参与者报告说，过渡经历导致对学术和财务程序的困惑、包括焦虑和恐惧在内的各种情绪、意识到自己在学术技能上存在缺陷以及获得家庭成员和其他人的支持。文化和社会资本似乎在他们的成功中发挥了关键作用。鼓励学生事务专业人员探索有针对性的个性化策略，以满足 FGCS 在过渡到大学时的需求。
This qualitative study explored the high school to college transition experiences of ten successful first-generation college students (FGCS). Participants were college seniors at an historically black university in the United States. A generic qualitative research design was used, including in-depth, semi-structured interviews to collect and analyze data. Participants reported that the transition experience led to confusion with academic and financial procedures, various emotions including anxiety and fear, the realization that they had deficits in academic skills, and the receipt of support from family members and others. Cultural and social capital appeared to play key roles in their success. Student affairs professionals are encouraged to explore targeted, individualized strategies that meet the needs of FGCS as they transition to college.
