Abstract
This article examines the cross-cultural experience of immigrant students in Hong Kong and the
U.S. state of California and the role of their cultural capital in the cross-cultural identity process.
It begins with a review of studies on the challenges of immigrant students in schools. A
theoretical framework is then established to examine the cross-cultural experience of these
students based on the evidence obtained from the literature. The article concludes with a
discussion of the study’s implications for educational provision to immigrant students.
