| Abstract: | With the recent emphasis on college completion in institutions, states, and higher education policy environments, it is important that colleges and universities work to ensure the success of all incoming student groups. Although the traditional group of interest based on federal reporting mechanisms is first-time, full-time students, it is becoming increasingly important to consider the success of transfer students and those who may "swirl" through higher education. The purpose of this study was to identify how pre-entry attributes, goals, and institutional experiences related to the early engagement of transfer students attending UNC Charlotte. The present study expands on previous work related to transfer student integration and success in a way that is specific to UNC Charlotte. |
