Issue Spotlight: Transfer
The transfer process has been broken as long as it has existed. One underlying issue is that, as students move across learning institutions and the workplace, the various learning experiences they accumulate along the way do not always neatly translate to degrees and credentials that have value for careers or further education. In fact, students can lose a third of their credits or more as they transfer, resulting in time and money wasted and prolonged delays to their career success and advancement.
Moreover, the transfer pipeline has done even worse by low-income students and Black, Indigenous and Latinx students, who are about half as likely to reach completion. While recent reforms have made incremental improvements, what is needed now, as our country faces one of the biggest crises of modern times, is a big fix. That is why HCM is working to transform the system through sound public policy that will produce more equitable outcomes for transfer students. Our dedicated staff continues to work toward solutions that recognize the diverse needs and full range of experiences of today’s transfer students. Learn more about the work we are doing below.
