Book Synopsis Understanding the Barriers East Texas Community College Students Experience in Transferring to a Regional University by : Kelly Leigh Coke
Download or read book Understanding the Barriers East Texas Community College Students Experience in Transferring to a Regional University written by Kelly Leigh Coke and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a plethora of research available on students and the barriers they face in transferring to a university, such as transfer processes, articulations, pathways, 2+2 plans, institutional agents, and financial issues. However, in rural areas of Texas, little research is available on the barriers students endure in transferring from community colleges to four-year universities. The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study was to determine the transfer barriers faced by a community college student population and the support services needed for their successful transfers to four-year universities. The framework that guided this study was transfer student capital and transfer shock. Transfer shock is when a student transfers from community college to university and experiences culture shock in the university culture. Transfer student capital is the support needed for transfer students. The researcher gathered the data through one-on-one interviews with 15 community college students who transferred to a four-year university. Prior to the interviews, each participant completed a presurvey consisting of questions about their community college experiences, including support received on transferring and how it impacted their decisions to transfer to a university. Participants shared in interviews that their major barriers for transferring from the community college to a university were academic advising, personal issues, and inadequate collegiate services for transfer students, such as enrollment services, financial services, and university support programs.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative phenomenological study examines transfer shock and the experience of community college students as they transitioned to California State University, Chico. Interviews were conducted with 13 community college transfer students who experienced a difficult transition to the four year institution as evidenced by a significant first semester drop in grade point average, known as transfer shock. The five research questions were: 1. How do students characterize their transition experience? 2. What are transfer students' expectations around transfer? 3. What differences do transfers students report between the two and four year institutions? 4. What helps and hindrances to their transition do students report? 5. What additional types of support might be offered by the institution to aid their transition experience? The author utilized Schlossberg's Transition Theory (1995) as a lens to explore the transition experiences of students during their first semester at the new institution. Schlossberg posits that situation, self, supports and strategies (the 4 S's) impact an individual's ability to transition successfully. The researcher found that students characterized their transition in negative and positive terms. Student's expectations were largely inaccurate in that they expected their experience at the four year institution to be very similar to their community college experience. Instead, they discovered many differences between institutions in terms of the academic and social environment and campus culture. Overall, the findings revealed that the academic transition was much more difficult for students than the social transition. For example, students found classes at the four year institution larger and more demanding with less instructor interaction. In regards to the social transition, study participants reported that Chico State provided a welcoming social environment in which it was easy to make friends. They also found that the campus culture was more positive and goal-oriented at the four year level than at the community college. Overall, study participants reported many more hindrances than helps to their transition experience. In particular, transfer students who lived away from home for the first time experienced difficulties with time management and basic life skills such as cooking and cleaning. One of the greatest hindrances to many transfer students in their transition was their reluctance to seek help. Challenges reported at the institutional level included: difficulties with the admission process, obstacles to obtaining academic advising and lack of information about academic and probation policies. Using Schlossberg's Transition Theory as a lens to assess students' coping strategies revealed that students' assessment of their situation, as well their unwillingness to reach out for support contributed to their transition difficulties. This study concludes with policy and future research recommendations, as well as an emerging theoretical framework of transfer socialization. Institutions must consider the entire transfer process beginning at the community college and extending through the first semester at the new institution. Therefore, in order to help students avoid transfer shock, interventions must be staged at key points along the transition continuum.
Book Synopsis Assessing the Transfer Shock of Community College Students Transferring to an Urban Public University by : Louis White
Download or read book Assessing the Transfer Shock of Community College Students Transferring to an Urban Public University written by Louis White and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the extent of transfer shock experienced by community college students transferring to an urban public university. Review of the published literature on transfer shock uncovered no studies of this type conducted at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), urban or otherwise. Accordingly, a public urban HBCU was chosen to serve as the focus of this research. Six cohorts, consisting of community college transfer students entering the HBCU in the falls of 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, or 2005, formed the study's parameters. Students transferring to the HBCU in the falls of 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003 had their academic performance tracked for all four semesters, while fall 2004 transferees were tracked for three semesters, and 2005 fall entrants for only one semester. The study ended in December 2005. Secondary data and the quantitative method were employed in this research. The data studied have been stored at the HBCU, available upon request, subject to approval by the Institution's Review Board. The IRB approved the request for the data sought for this study, which were obtained from the Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation in an electronic format with no identifying information; therefore, no interviews or any other interaction with these students were needed. Of the requested data, those pertaining to gender, age, enrollment status (full-time or part-time), semester and year of initial enrollment, final community college GPA and HBCU GPAs (first through fourth semester enrollment), and the final HBCU GPA were the obtained data. Other literature in this field indicated that community college transfer students who transferred from community colleges that prepared them well for transfer to four-year colleges were less likely to suffer from transfer shock. Studying the amount of transfer shock encountered by transfer students from various community colleges could have indicated the quality of preparation given students at these various community colleges. Collecting such data year-to-year would also have yielded a pattern indicating the consistency of quality of preparing these students for transfer, along with creating a longitudinal study. Qualitative studies would have provided an added dimension to these studies. -- Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to explore whether traditional and nontraditional students who transferred from 2-year to 4-year institutions experienced differences in transfer shock, academic integration, and social integration. A substantial body of knowledge comparing transfer students to native students on transfer shock exists, while only a few qualitative studies have focused on how transfer students experience academic and social integration at the transfer institution. Further, the major studies examining transfer student behavior group all transfer students into a single category by the one thing they share in common- a transition experience. Due to the increasing numbers and diversity of transfer students it is important to examine how their unique characteristics influence transfer and subsequent integration into their new environment. The sample for this study was taken from the Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study (BPS: 04/09). The large, nationally representative data set was filtered to include only students who transferred from 2-year institutions to 4-year institutions, creating a much smaller sample of students. The main independent variable in the analyses was age. For this study traditional students were defined as those less than 24 years of age, while nontraditional students were those 24 years or older. Linear regression was used to examine whether traditional and nontraditional students experienced differences in transfer shock, level of academic integration, and level of social integration following transfer. The findings from this study suggest that there is no relationship between age and transfer experiences. Further research is necessary to determine whether the absence of a relationship truly exists or whether the small sample size in this analysis influenced the outcome.

Book excerpt: With the presence of intercollegiate athletics on a 4-year college campus, athletics provides students with a reason to attend college and an opportunity to stay connected to the university after they graduate. At what cost is the student-athlete's academic experience compromised if they are not prepared for a 4-year university? The purpose of this qualitative study is to examine what causes student-athletes' Grade Point Averages (GPAs) to change after their first and/or second semesters at the 4-year institution and offer observations and recommendations to strengthen the transfer experience for student-athletes from a community college to a 4-year university. Eight one-on-one interviews with transfer student-athletes provided research and insights into answering the following research questions: 1. In what ways does the transfer shock phenomenon manifest itself among student-athletes who transfer from community colleges to Division I 4-year institutions? 2. How did academic support services impact your transfer experience from the community college to the 4-year institution? 3. What Athletic Department practices and strategies facilitate the success of student-athletes who transfer from community colleges to Division I 4-year institutions? This study focused on student-athletes on scholarship who transferred to a Division I 4-year institution from a community college. One-on-one interviews were conducted on eight transfer student-athletes from four sports which included three male sports and one female sport. The research results provided recommendations for 2- and 4-year institutions on how to make the transfer process for 2-year student-athletes a smoother process which supported academic success. This study was my hope to understand and find an answer the question regarding the transfer shock phenomenon for the student-athlete population to enable student-athletes to have every resource available to them for academic success.
