A feature of the existing literature on minority students' transition to college is the preponderance of models that have “imagined” what students (and their families) need to have in order to be successful. In this paper we discuss how the theoretical framework of funds of knowledge can be used by researchers in higher education to challenge these models and to study Latina(o) students' college preparation, college access, and development of career aspirations
