Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper demonstrates how Latinx/a/o parents drew on various forms of capital to support their children’s college application, choice, and transition during the pandemic. Latinx/a/o parents encouraged and supported their children by maintaining high college aspirations despite COVID-19 concerns, entrusting their children with their college choice decisions despite sometimes conflicting with their own, and supporting their children in their college transition through consejos and encouragement. This study contributes to the literature by centering Latinx/a/o parents’ counternarratives that highlight their ongoing commitment to supporting students’ college aspirations despite deficit notions exacerbated by the pandemic.
