Kearney, Gretchen Warner; And Others
Research in Higher Education, v36 n3 p323-44 Jun 1995
A study of 420 multiple-transfer students enrolled at a large, public, urban university found that students moved along 4 transfer paths before enrolling at the university, where they comprised one-fifth of undergraduates. Paths differed on demographic, institutional, and interaction variables. Overall, they were academic achievers with high socioeconomic backgrounds. (Author/MSE)
