Abstract

This article examines the pattern of career choice among Korean‐American college students at a prestigious California university and analyzes how that pattern reflects their immigrant parents' cultural model of success and subsequent educational strategies. It describes the influence of the cultural model as a family and community force on Korean‐American students' career choices as well as the costs incurred by that model.
