Bridging the Gaps to Success: Promising Practices for Promoting Transfer among Low-Income and First-Generation Students
The Pell Institute for the Study of Opportunity in Higher Education
This report examines successful transfer strategies implemented at six Texas community colleges that continue to help low-income and first-generation students—many of them African American and Latino—obtain their baccalaureate degrees. The study highlights what is working to increase transfer rates for low-income and first-generation students at each institution while gleaning a set of promising practices common to each of the schools that can inform other community colleges on how to establish successful transfer cultures.
