RD217 - Report on Transfers from Community Colleges at Virginia Public Institutions - September 2011


Executive Summary:
This report describes the total number of Virginia Community College System (VCCS) transfer students each four-year institution of higher education enrolled, and graduated from 2003-04 to 2007-08. The number of VCCS transfer students admitted to each higher education institution is not included because the State Council of Higher Education does not require the reporting of this information.

The data tables included in this report provide information about VCCS students transferring to four-year institutions with, and without, the associate degree in the fall terms of 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007. The tables indicate numbers of transfers by institution, attaining the baccalaureate within two, three, and four years after transfer.

Note: the cohort of students transferring in the fall of 2007 will have graduated during the 2010-11 academic year. Numbers of students taking longer than four years to graduate are not indicated. The tables also provide numbers of students who did not complete the baccalaureate degree within four years after transfer under the designation “still enrolled/DNG (did not graduate).” These students are not included in the data as of the fifth year after transferring.
