Students transferring from one institution to another continue to be a significant part of our college populations, and they consume considerable amounts of time and effort by advisors at both two-year and four-year institutions. Transfer students constitute a population that already brings some higher education experience with them yet they are new to the transfer institution. This monograph identifies many of the issues related to this population and provides a wide range of potential services, programs, and other resources that serve to strengthen the overall higher education experience for transfers.
