Sumario:Educational researchers have long been concerned about the factors that influence the patterns of attendance in higher education and the extent to which higher education has been accessible to all students regardless of their socioeconomic status.

Drawing on cultural capital theory, this study aims at analyzing how students' college choice process varies by social class in China.
