"This book unpacks the complex dynamics of Hong Kong students' choice in pursuing undergraduate education at the universities of Mainland China. Drawing on an empirical study based on interviews with 51 students, this book investigates how macro political/economic factors, institutional influences, parental influence, and students' personal motivations have shaped students' eventual choice of university. Building on Perna's integrated model of college choice and Lee's push-pull mobility model, this book conceptualizes that students' border crossing from Hong Kong to Mainland China for higher education is a trans-contextualized negotiated choice under the "One Country, Two Systems" principle. The findings reveal that during the decision-making process, influencing factors have conditioned four archetypes of student choice: Pragmatists, Achievers, Averages and Underachievers. The book closes by proposing an enhanced integrated model of college choice that encompasses both rational motives and sociological factors, and examines the theoretical significance and practical implications of the qualitative study. With its focus on student choice and experiences of studying in China, this book's research and policy findings will interest researchers, university administrators, school principals and teachers"--
