| Descripción: | RÉSUMÉLes études menées aux États-Unis montrent que les étudiants dits de première génération (ÉPG) sont moins susceptibles de poursuivre leurs études au niveau universitaire, comparativement aux étudiants dont les parents sont titulaires d’un diplôme d’études postsecondaires (collégiales ou universitaires). Les ÉPG qui entreprennent des études universitaires seraient confrontés à plusieurs obstacles qui rendent leur parcours scolaire plus diffi cile. Qu’en est-il au Canada? Selon les résultats de l’analyse des données de l’Enquête longitudinale auprès des jeunes en transition (EJET), effectuée de 2000 à 2005, la situation est semblable à celles des États-Unis en ce qui concerne l’accès aux études postsecondaires : comparés aux autres étudiants, les ÉPG accèdent à l’université dans une proportion plus faible. Toutefois, on ne constate pas de différence sur le plan de la persévérance : les ÉPG canadiens qui entreprennent des études universitaires obtiennent le diplôme de baccalauréat dans une proportion égale à celle de leurs homologues venant de famille au capital scolaire plus élevé. ABSTRACTResearch in the United States shows that American fi rst generation students (FGS) are less likely to attend university than students whose parents are college graduates (NFGS). Furthermore, those among American FGS who undertake a bachelor degree would have to overcome, throughout their college experience, obstacles related to their family’s background. Are the Canadian FGS experiencing the same educational disadvantages than their American counterparts? Using longitudinal data from Youth in Transition Survey (YITS), conducted from 2000 to 2005, this paper shows that, as seen in the American studies, Canadian FGS are less likely to attend university than NFGS. However, there is no difference in regards to academic persistence. FGS and NFGS have the same probability of obtaining a bachelor degree. |
