Abstract	While the literature on the experiences of working-class Students of Color at selective, historically White institutions has grown significantly over the past twenty-five years, how this student population is making sense of their social class identity as they gain access to dominant cultural and social capital at their institutions remains heavily understudied. To further complicate the experience of social class transitions or upward mobility for working-class Students of Color, this literature review will discuss the phenomenon of gentrification, a racial and class based process in which the inner city is redeveloped for the tastes of the middle-class while simultaneously displacing working-class populations. Through an analysis of past studies on working-class Students of Color and gentrification, I intend to tie these two threads of research together to examine what it means to be a college educated, upwardly mobile, native of a working-class gentrifying neighborhood. In doing so, this paper will bridge a gap in both working-class Students of Color and gentrification literature, highlighting the importance of race and class in both higher education and in urban life.
