Continuing and Transfer Students

Abstract: This research examines factors that contribute to persistence of sophomore students. It builds a model to predict the likelihood of leaving the institution by third year and explores whether the concept of transfer receptivity can be used to explain differences in persistence between continuing and transfer sophomore students. Results indicate that financial variables and transfer status are the most important variables in sophomores’ retention. Other student precollege characteristics and experiences during c… Show more

“…Thus, these two variables are very important to be addressed (Warnecke & Lewine, 2019). These results are in line with research (Blekic et al, 2020) that students who have high engagement are able to show hard-working and diligent behavior both in class and outside of class. This attitude is indicated by the presence of positive emotions, such as being happy and always feeling curious in the learning process.…”

“…Other work suggests that students who earn at least 10 credits before transfer earn bachelor's degrees at a higher rate (71%) than native 4-year students (66%) and vertical transfer students who transfer prior to earning 10 credits (38%; Adelman, 1999). The number of credits earned posttransfer is also positively associated with an increased likelihood of retention between the fall of sophomore and junior year (Blekic et al, 2020), supporting that credit accrual is an indicator of academic momentum associated with college success (Clovis & Chang, 2019).…”

“…Retention occurs due to the transfer of new information gleaned from short-term memory to long-term memory. Retention could be seen from the amount of knowledge that can be stored in long-term memory and applied again correctly at certain times or to other problems [11,12]. But the fact on the ground shows that student retention is still low.…”
