Abstrakt: This study highlights the narratives of five Latino males from three different postsecondary institutions-a community college, a four-year public state college, and a large private research university--and the impact of their participation in college preparation programs. The data is drawn from a study in which the impact of college preparation programs became evident. With a focus on the individual stories of these young men and their involvement in college preparation programs, this study provides recommendations for research, policy, and practice as a means of providing increased access to postsecondary education for Latino males.
