Attainment for All: Postsecondary Pathways. Reverse Transfers
Siddiqi, Javaid; Mikolowsky, James
Hunt Institute
As state leaders across the country seek strategies that will drive progress toward their postsecondary attainment goals, many have used data to analyze the current attainment levels of different segments of the state's residents. Reverse Transfer, sometimes referred to as degree reclamation, is a policy strategy that can be used to aggregate the learning experiences that postsecondary students have had across different institutions of higher education (IHEs) to determine whether they may already be eligible for a certificate or degree -- or to determine the remaining steps necessary for completion. The Hunt Institute released a series of policy briefs that highlighted scalable state-level strategies to boost postsecondary attainment rates among specific student subpopulations including recent high school graduates, first-generation students, and adult learners. This second policy brief, focused on reverse transfer, which ensures students who have earned credit across multiple institutions of higher education receive the certificates or degrees that they have earned or helps students determine the remaining steps necessary for completion. [For the first brief, see ED614430. For the third brief, see ED614426.]
