New data show that fewer than half of community college students who transfer

to four-year institutions go on to earn a bachelor’s degree, and these poor outcomes

are more pronounced among the most vulnerable student populations.

​

The findings were detailed in two new reports, one focused on community colleges

and another on four-year institutions, released Wednesday by the Community College Research Center

at Columbia University’s Teachers College, the Aspen Institute College Excellence Program and

the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center.

​

The findings draw on data from the National Student Clearinghouse.

​

“Tracking Transfer” reports have been published regularly since 2017, but this is the first time the

transfer student outcomes data were disaggregated by categories such as race, ethnicity and income.
