Through the Transfer Gate: Breaking Down Student Transfer Barriers ft. Darla Cooper
The Higher Edge
<p>An alarming number of students are not reaching a critical step in their journey toward a bachelor's degree — transferring their community college work to 4-year universities and colleges in order to continue their education. </p>
<p>When students can’t reach these goals, it undermines their ability to succeed after investing in themselves and their education. It feels like a fruitless task. </p>
<p><b>Darla Cooper, Executive Director of The RP Group</b>, joins us to share what she and her research team discovered in their efforts to better understand the student transfer problem. </p>
