At last there is a handbook that everyone in higher education can use to
help increase transfer student success. This comprehensive resource has
been brought together to meet the need for a truly holistic approach to
the transfer experience. The book brings together research, theory,
practical applications, programmatic illustrations, case studies,
encouragement, and inspiration, and is supplemented by an online
compendium for continual updates of resources, case studies, and new
developments in the world of transfer.
Based on a totally different way of thinking about, understanding, and
acting to increase transfer student success, The Transfer Experience
goes far beyond the traditional, limited view of transfer as a technical
process simply about articulating credits, a stage of student
development, or a novel enrollment management strategy. Rather, the book
introduces a stimulating array of new perspectives, resources, options,
models, and recommendations for addressing the many needs of this huge
cohort - making the academic, civic, and social justice cases for
improving transfer at both transfer-sending and transfer-receiving
institutions.
