College undermatching, is when highly qualified high school graduates from less affluent or minority backgrounds choose not to enroll at a university that best suits their qualifications. At Islamic Private School (IPS), an independent co-ed Islamic high school in Florida, 99% of the students in the last four graduating classes undermatched. Needs assessment results suggested that the causes of undermatching at IPS included preference to remain home for college, the merit-based scholarship incentive at their local institution, poor financial literacy, meeting late with the school counselor, limited intergroup contact, and overall lack of social and cultural capital related to college information. Informed by social, cultural and human capital theory and Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Aiming High! (AH) was developed to address college undermatching at IPS by instilling an elite college culture within the school counseling department with the students' social identity in mind. A mixed methods analysis of AH using quantitative and qualitative data from a pretest-posttest design along with follow-up interviews revealed a significant increase in college knowledge among participants post-AH and nonsignificant increase in college perceptions towards applying to match universities.
