520 |a Increasing transfer success of community college students has the potential to improve preparedness of America's workforce. Yet little is known about the types of institutions to which students transfer from community colleges. This is the executive summary of the report, "Persistence: The Success of Students Who Transfer From Community Colleges to Selective Colleges and Universities," which examines the extent to which students from public, two-year colleges transfer to selective four-year institutions, and how they fare once enrolled. Data on students enrolled between 2010 and 2016 were used to examine transfer patterns and outcomes for both institutions and students. The report examines data across the higher education spectrum, with a focus on selective colleges and universities -- i.e., those classified as "Most Competitive" or "Highly Competitive" in the Barron's 2016 Competitiveness Index. For the academically talented student, there are numerous documented benefits to attending a more selective institution, including higher graduation rates, increased earnings post-degree, and higher rates of graduate school enrollment.
