Retention, Graduation, and Transfer Rates at Maryland Community Colleges [2016]
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 1993 and 2013. This edition of the report includes analysis of student outcomes two, three, and four years after matriculation. The first section 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 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 every three years by the community colleges and the Commission. It includes questions regarding students' perception of 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. Additional data tables are presented containing this information for all students and African American students within each institution.
