• W216220356 abstract "Introduction A significant number of students transfer from one college to another each year, and historically this has created challenges for students striving to attain their higher education goals. The purpose of this study was to inform state articulation pohcy by collecting qualitative data to characterize issues that affect students as they transfer from one college to another. Researchers conducted three focus groups and individual telephone interviews with transfer students at four Illinois universities, both public and private. In mese focus groups and interviews, students were asked to describe their transfer experiences, including the strengths and weaknesses of die support services available to them from the sending and receiving institutions. Literature Review Student Transfer Rates and Patterns In their quest to attain their baccalaureate goals, some students exhibit complex college attendance patterns, transferring from one institution of higher education (IHE) to another. Nationally, nearly 60% of college students attended more than one institution on their way to earning their Bachelor's degree (U.S. Department of Education, 2005). In 2006 in Illinois, 52,507 students transferred from one IHE to another, with 42% of these students transferring from community colleges to public and private four year IHEs, 38% transferring from out-of-state or foreign institutions to in-state IHEs, and 11% transferring from pubhc universities to community colleges and other four year pubhc and private IHEs (IBHE, 2007). While student transfer from a community college to a four-year college or university is the most common pattern of attendance, commonly referred to as vertical transfer (Striplin, 2000; Kirk-Kuwaye & KirkKuwaye, 2007), students' college attendance can be more complex. Other models of transfer that have been identified are reverse transfer, lateral transfer, and swirling. Students reverse transfer when they transfer from a four-year IHE to a two-year IHE or community college (Kajstura & Keim, 1992; Winter & Harris, 1999). Students lateral transfer when they transfer from one four-year institution to another. A significant number of students attending a four-year institution also take summer courses at community colleges in order to complete their degree in a four year time period. Later research on student transfer patterns identified students who swirl, transferring to multiple colleges or concurrently enrolling in multiple institutions (Barkley, 1993; McCormick, 2003). While each of these types of transfer - vertical, lateral, reverse, and swirling - are important to note, the group of primary interest for the purpose of this study was vertical transfer students. Inter-Institutional Theory In a study that examined Economic Development Administration (EDA) grants to provide new jobs for minorities in Oakland, California, Pressman and Wildavsky (1973) noted me complicated nature of die implementation process, even when the organizational process looks simple. Additional complications arise when involving two or more organizations (two-year and four-year institutions) in a policy initiative (in this case, statewide articulation) with die goal of achieving a solution to collective problems or issues that cannot be resolved by a single organization (Gray, 1985; Gray & Hay, 1986; Gray & Wood, 1991; Hardy & Phillips, 1998; Logsdon, 1991; Trist, 1983). Through inter-organizational collaborations, new behavioral expectations and specialized roles for member organizations are mapped out (Van de Ven, Emme«, & Koeni, 1975). Often though, organizations working collaboratively still maintain single organizational expectations and behaviors, and even within education organizations there exists a loose coupling (Weick, 1976). The complexity of collaboration among organizations creates challenges to providing a seamless transfer experience for transfer students. …" @default.
