Transfer Behavior Among Beginning Postsecondary Students: 1989-94. Postsecondary Education Descriptive Analysis Reports

摘要

This report first provides a general description of attendance at multiple institutions. Next, it provides an overview of transfer activity across the population of beginning students. Two types of transfer are then analyzed in detail: transfer out of 4-year institutions, and transfer from public 2-year institutions to 4-year institutions. Finally, three appendices are included for readers who desire additional information. Appendix A presents percentage distributions of key populations according to level and control of the base year sample institution, and also the distribution of selected student characteristics within each type of institution. Appendix B contains a glossary that provides detailed information about the characteristics presented in the tables. Appendix C describes the data and statistical methods used in the report.
