Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. This book is about
the experiences of students in institutions of higher education
from 'non-traditional' backgrounds. The expansion of Higher
Education world-wide shows no signs of slowing down and there is
already a large literature on who has access to higher education
and to qualifications that offer higher life-time incomes and
status. However to date there has been minimal focus on what
happens to the students once they are in the institutions and the
inequalities that they face. This book aims to fill this gap in the
literature. The chapters demonstrate that the students and their
families are finding ways of acquiring forms of capital that
encourage and sustain their participation in higher education.
Contributions from the UK, the USA and Australia reveal that the
issues surrounding the inclusion of 'non-traditional' students are
broadly similar in different countries. It should be read by all
those leading, managing, or teaching in, institutions of higher
education and all students or intending students whatever their
background.
