| Popis: | The research questions that guided this study were: What are undocumented college students’ experiences with orientation, transition, and retention (OTR) efforts on campus? How do undocumented students perceive their OTR experiences relate to their sense of belonging on campus? Using a sense of belonging framework, I analyzed data from semi-structured interviews with five undocumented college students nation-wide. Findings reflected the importance of OTR in facilitating sense of belonging through pre-orientation, orientation, and ongoing transition and retention efforts. Participant-based implications include incorporating family in OTR efforts, connecting students to identity-based resources, and facilitating social support with peers and educators. |
