Ambivalent Calculations in Toronto: Negotiating the Meaning of Success among Early Study Abroad High School Students

---

This paper illustrates how Korean Early Study Abroad students in Toronto make sense of admission to the University of Toronto as a symbol of success in their transnational educational enterprise by appropriating the discourse of “springboard to the US” and Korean ideology of school hierarchy. By examining how these Korean families negotiate the meaning of success to deal with their anxiety of being oriented to multiple markets in relation to the local constraints and the material conditions that surround them, the article examines how transnationalism, as a strategy for class mobility by Korean middle-class families, ultimately contributes to the reproduction of the Korean class system based on educational and linguistic capital.
