Abstract	This article reviews the literature on the experiences of working-class students at different stages of the student life cycle. It examines the factors influencing their participation rates in higher education (HE), their ability to adapt to university life, and their success in the graduate labour market. The article argues that without radical policies that fundamentally change the relationship between social class and pre-HE qualifications, significant progress in widening participation is unlikely. (Contains 2 notes.) (As Provided).
