Retention, Graduation, and Transfer Rates at Maryland Community Colleges [2017]
Maryland Higher Education Commission
This report provides information on retention, graduation, and transfer rates for students entering Maryland community colleges as first-time, full-time students between 1994 and 2014. This edition includes data about student outcomes two, three, and four years after matriculation. The first section of this report contains analysis of student retention, graduation, and transfer rates for all students statewide as well as rates disaggregated by race/ethnicity and gender. This analysis examines both year-to-year changes and longitudinal trends. The second section of the report examines the Degree Progress Analysis. This model is an alternative method of examining student success that includes a broader population of students and considers additional outcomes. Finally, the third section provides a summary of data obtained in the community college follow-up survey. This survey is conducted by the community colleges and the Commission, and includes questions regarding graduates' perception of institutional quality, post-graduation enrollment, and employment outcomes, in addition to a variety of other topics. The appendix includes detailed data tables containing retention, graduation, and transfer information for all students statewide, by gender, and the largest racial and ethnic groups. The tables record student outcomes two, three, and four years following matriculation. [For the 2016 report, see ED589940.]
