On the Move: Supporting Student Transfer. An Overview of Postsecondary Transfer Policies and Programs across New England
Hannenmann, Laura; Hazenbush, Matthew
New England Board of Higher Education
Across New England, an increasing share of jobs will require some postsecondary education by 2020. Yet, the National Student Clearinghouse findings demonstrate that student pathways to a degree or credential are not always straightforward. In New England, approximately 25% of all students who earned a bachelor's degree had previously attended a two-year institution. Ensuring that these and other transfer students can easily navigate their studies toward a credential is critically important to the region's future well-being; state, system and institutional transfer policies can play a crucial role to ensuring student success. In an effort to provide timely information and resources to higher education policymakers and leaders across the region, this landscape analysis details state- and system-level transfer policies, programs and online resources available to students in each of the New England states. Individual institutions may offer other resources in addition to articulation agreements with other institutions to support students transferring in and out of the institution.
