Abstract: The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between teachers perceived external prestige (PEP), person-organization fit (POF), and organizational identification (OI). Based on the social identity theory (SIT), 220 teachers from 9 private undergraduate colleges in Yunnan Province, China, were the participants. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The analysis reveals that OI is positively and significantly influenced by teachers' PEP and POF. Furthermore, POF mediates the connection of PEP with OI. Additionally, recognizing the importance of POF for private school teachers, as well as the significance of meeting social and psychological needs, is crucial. Therefore, private colleges in Yunnan should enhance their external prestige while optimizing the mediating mechanism of POF to strengthen teachers' OI.
