Despite around 80 percent of community college students hoping to earn a bachelor's degree, only 16 percent will have completed a four-year program six years after transferring.
To improve transfer outcomes and alleviate hurdles for students, colleges and universities have built programs and interventions that mitigate credit loss and information gaps.
Mentors, former Hostos students themselves, are responsible for tracking student registration, performing outreach, offering walk-in appointments for support, hosting transfer workshops.
Santa Clara University in California expanded transfer admission agreements with 43 community colleges, allowing eligible learners to transfer to the university's business, engineering or arts.
